On the subject of soil.... Mg vs. Scotts

Scotts by a mile. It's too easy for a noob to get over-zealous and start feeding before it's necessary.
Since I was a noob at one point trust me. noobs always want to do too much.
A first grow is exciting and it's easy to over-feed, AS IT IS.
at least with scotts if you feed when the plant is ready, there's no risk of burning
by already having too many nutes in the soil.
( miracle grow soil usually feed for the first 3 mo)
Also sometimes i've seen seedlings burn in that (miracle grow) soil too without additional nutes.


In most stores Scotts is also cheaper by a few bucks!!!

Remeber, feed the soil and the soil will feed the plant

Now you kids go out and grow some nice buds, don't forget to write and send me pics!!!

Also you can use molassas 1tbsp per gallon ( thats what I do) every other feeding
during flowering!!! make your buds nice n think

anyone have any experience using schultz bloom plus plant food when flowering? just looking around the store to see whats available. Thanks

I've seen that around in homedepot too. If its the liquid I'm thinking of i've also used that but
You have to be very careful with the amount, I cut the recomended in like more than half. so it's almost like
1/3 the stregnth. The color burst granules are really good cause you give them one dose and that's it
your good for like 3-4 weeks

hay I have a hydro system and on my very first grow. What is a good combo nuts for that?
GTB

well if you want a successful hydrogrow there isn't really a cheap home depot fix.
I would find a hydro/ garden retailer that carries foxfarm.
Spend the money it is totally worth it

I just want to say something. It all depends on the tools available to you. pH meter and ppm meter are key.

I grew with MG 20-20-20. It was fine. The only problem that I had was the fact that I was growing in soil-less and I didnt know that there was absolutely no nutes in my ground (promix). People would say not to feed, or dont feed too much, and so I didnt feed at all. If you regulate the ppm, you can grow successfully with miracle gro. It is not bad!! The other stuff might be better seeing as there might be some micro nutrients that miracle grow doesnt have. But if MG is available to the user, I'd advise to purchase a ppm meter from ebay for $20-30
