Maybe if you mix some Perlite and peat moss to your soil or just Perl, peat and vermiculite together. Always flush out your soil now and then when needed and you dont want too much humidity. Your plant would need Fertilizer to keep it healthy and fresh clean water. So you need the right stuff. Its pretty easy when you get doing it.

thanks man, but i mean like with the soil, when i water it what kinda set up shld i do under the pots so the water doesnt ruin the box? i read high times but they only have had things about hydro lately and i dnt want my plants dieing wen i start

Get some saucer plates for your plant. Drip trays. The exact size for your pot. When you flush and drain, do it inside a bigger bucket. When I water, i do it inside a bigger drip tray.

will that insure me that there will be no mold? because im going for all organic, no chems
