I bought a good amount of dirt from my buddys landscaping company locally, its called black gold. its a compost of wood, leaves, and horse manure. I took this black dirt and mixxed it with perlite and took 4x 4gallon plants that had fox farm ocean forest soil, and put them into 4x 20 gal containers, with the mixture I made. Not too sure if theres something i can do to make this work any better but the plants are a very light green if that helps. the strain is super skunk and its outdoor

How long have they been out there? You really need to supplement with some sort of nitrogen if they are going to be in the soil for more than 90 days or so... Top dress with some Cottonseed/alfalfa meal, Earth Worm Castings and hit your plants with a little alfalfa tea to brighten things up. But that soil you are describing only sounds good for about 60 days of nitrogen at MOST.

Horse crap is loaded with nitorgen, maybe too old, can you get some from a field. Do not get wet stuff you want the white, been sitting for a while ones, the fresh wet stuff will kill your plants overnight.

Yah loaded with nitro, but a big plant will almost use nitro exponentially if vegging for a long time (this sounds like a big outdoor plant to me)
