I am using

Organic Jungle Growth Potting Mix, and I LOVE it. They sell it at lowes


with the ferts

17-5-11 or 19-6-12 for veg stage. 15-30-15 for flowering.

Hope I was helpful

[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]The first number indicates the NITROGEN content measured as % N.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]The second number indicates the PHOSPHORUS content measured as % P2O5[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]The third number indicates the POTASSIUM content measured as % K2O[/FONT]


[FONT=Arial, sans-serif]You want lots of nitrogen for VEG stage, and lots of Phosphorus for flowering.
