Miracle grow soil...

Ok so i have read so many threads on not using miracle grow soil that i decided ide give it a go...

Ok yeah i know it aint particularly big yet but all seems well to me what ya think?



think there is the odd spot of yellow on the bottom leaves but the top ones seem tip top to me! or am i just having clouded judgement?

how old are they? what kinda light are they under? MG leaves out magnesium so be sure to get some...i just got some MG moisture control but i didnt really like it, i found little ants in it and there were pretty large sticks all in it, i went to my local store today and got some ocean forrest, just because ive heard alot about it, its all organic, and i use their nutes....i also got a bag of perlite for better drainage

Id transplant into FOX FARMS Ocean Forest and Light Warrior(Perlite)4 sweet drainage and root growth, 70-30 mix. Thats what im using. I herd BAD things about MG! FOX FARMS IS THE SHIT!!

do this or feel the burn

switch asap...depending on what you do, youll either thank us, or kill yourself

i use and have used MG, no probs, just dries out quick

i used MG and my plant came out fine...a boy...but fine and healthy!!! it was a foot tall before i killed it

Ive been using Mg Organic and no its not lacking Mag... lol... you can read the ingredients just like any other brand.. My lady likes it and i will continue to use it untill it proves otherwise... I have people that use fox at its 25 dollar a bag and switched to a 9 dollar mg organic and did better!! dont hate educate... try both which ever you like use... there both very very good soil.. mg needs perlite so just add a mix of it in.. Its soil emo.. and you can fail using any method its TLC

right on homegrwn!!! dont knock until you tried it!

I too have used MG potting soil with 3 mon feed for years ,and have had no problems.The people at Scotts dont make all their soil at one plant and ship. They contract out to different outfits that are making soil.In the Pac.Norwest. we are fortunate to get good soil. They use a slow release fert like Osmocote (probley owned by Scotts). They ship bags on palets stacked so tite, they are like bricks. Bags are also exposed to rain and elements. Roll them around and break them up when you buy. If its heavy, its wet, I find lots of really wet soil and I believe this causes lots of problems.Be sure to open and let it dry out a little bit before using. GYO

im gonna have to say i have also used MG organic soil with good results. but i have never used foxfarm soil so i cant compare.

Thank you Twisted lol

All I see people saying is they "hear" MG is bad. Actual test 4tw.

I am using MG Organic right now and I am not disappointed....yet lol.

I have used MG for years ... No problems ...

i use MG and its fine just remember to off set the ph of your water because MG's ph is so low and to never use additional nutes until they are 3 weeks old

yeah see the MG organic ius on offer at homebase £3.99 for 57 litres. so i bought that and my plants are so so so much nicer this time!

alot of the equation is not the soil its the conditions and elements of your grow.. You want the best conditions... temps,humidity,square footage, light penetration disperstion and watering cycle.. You control 90 % of those equations the shit you cant control is what the plant will do ounce put into the equation.. However you can figure out what its doing and take messures to counter it! Shit call it like your going to the doctor for crabs; he cant tell what the hooker looked like but he can give you a cream and some pills and tell you to stop paying for sex.

lol haha

i made that up just then self clap!!

Anyone here ever use MG Afican violet soil?

I think its funny that you guys buy these premixed potting soils, FF or MG soil either one is too expensive, you say you only spend 9$ on this MG soil. 9$ is about what I spend on everyhting in my soil mix and I come out with about 20 gallons of great dirt.
