Soil - i am going to be buying soil for my 3rd indoor grow maybe next week when im closer to transplanting. plants are currently in solo cups they are Sativa/Indica Hybrids. strain is Strawberry cought. I am wondering which soil brand i should go with though.
My current options are 1. Fox Farm Ocean Forest ( have used on my first grow but felt kinda hot when transplanting could be because of bad watering + plastic pot idk ) 2. Roots Organic Original ( been using on my seedlings right now and 2nd grow i love this stuff it dries out slightly quicker then the FFOC to me but major issue is i seem to be always having fungus gnat issues with this soil. they go away after like a week or 2 but it's something i don't want to really keep dealing with if it is a manufacturer issue. the soils are kept in a building with a roof so they can't be getting wet ) 3. Pro Mix ( idk which one it is but this store just got it in and is the ONLY store in my state that i found pro mix at. )
Bacteria- How often can i be adding beneficial bacteria via Voodoo juice? i want to keep the population thriving but i don't want to be adding it so often that it will cause issues. my plant was to inoculate the soil first, then add 1 more time then possibly every 1-2 weeks after. I will be feeding them every 1-2 weeks as well with unsulphered molasses. i currently only use myko's which has helped my root system grow bigger from my past grows but i want to up my root game more by adding bacteria.
