Soil mixture

**kieahtoka** · 05-12-2007, 04:09 PM

I am trying to transplant some dieing seedlings from a hydro setup(not enough experience.) and put them into a soil mixture .

I looked in the grow faq and couldn't find a good soil mix for what I have:
bone meal
blood meal
scotts premium soil.
perlite
vermiculite

anyone got a good mix for me?

I use 60% perlite and 40% potting soil myself.

The soil will have enough nutes for 30ds.

I have not used organic though.
It is probally easier to use than adding nutes.

If I had some I would prob add 30% organic and 10% potting soil.

Happy growing

awesome, for once I seem to have done something right with this grow.

if you have more seeds you may want to start germinating incase those plants do not make it.

Hope that is not the case.
You can always find somewhere to put new seedlings.

Happy growing

it depends on if your gonna keep the soil when you start flowering"you want a lower n to p an k ratio

well what I'm gonna do is this is only my first pot it's about 6 in wide, I plan to transplant to my final pot right before flowering and I'm going to add bone meal to that, but all the transplants in between will use the blood meal.
