Outdoor grower(beginer), very low budget, tropical climate, weather temp averaging 75 to 85 degrees. Soil mix: 1 part potting soil, 1 part Miracle Grow Moisture control. Ive added a few egg shells and a little bit of coffee around the base of it. Looks Really good .Still a seedling about two weeks old!ill have a few pix on here later so you can see im looking for advice on household fertilizing.And any other advice you would provide. Thank You
 
well i would stop using miracle grow. especially if it has slow release tablets in it. i would take a 5 gal bucket and drill about 10 to 15 small holes in the bottom. i would put about a two inch layer of pebbles on the bottom of the bucket. i would put a fish in the bucket. in a second bucket mix soil from the store with no ferts in it. mix it with native dirt (brown dirt in your back yard) tropical regions have high sand content and it helps with draingage the mixture should be about 50/50. now put the dirt over the fish thats in the bucket with the holes. then plant your seeds. no ferts till the plant is a month old. now take a shovel and go find a hidden spot that gets at least 5 hours sunlight but shoot for at least 8 hours of sun. bury the bucket up to the rim. this hides the bucket. the holes int he bottom allow for proper drainage. and in case your security is threatened you can just go rip the bucket out of the ground rather than tranplanting or whatever. the fish provides plent of nutrients for the plant. at around a month the only thing i would give the plant is super thrive. then at flower time you can give it blooming nutes. also you can give it weekly feedings of water and molasses or syrup. mix 2 tablespoons of syrup or molasses to a two liter bottle of water. water the plant every 2 weeks with it. the sugars in the molasses stimulate the micro organisms in the dirt which stimulate root growth on the plant. the first time i tried syrup and water my buds on my plants doubled in size in two days. good luck
