helllllo so i think ive decided on going with a soil grow for my first time. any suggestions on what specific kind of soil i should use? and what other steps in need to take in the soil growing process. how often to water? nutrients? etc.
thanks everyone!
 
Fox farm ocean forest, for ur soil....also buy the fox farm liquid nutes, the 3 pack....don't have a place around that sells fox farm?? Ebay.....oh and get urself a water PH checker..if u water ur plants with bad water...u might as well not be feed ur plant at all.
This should get u started...
 
Ditto on Fox Farm. Check your ph regularly. Watering frequency and amount depend on plant size and growing conditions. You'll have to be more specific to get a better answer. Prune bottom branches so when it's time to work with the soil you won't have to work around those branches. Keep a little reserve soil around. Use enough soil in the right size container. Gaduate your container, small to large, if possible.
 
I went with Ocean forest and those same fox farm nutes for my first grow (just finishing up)
Seems to have done be a good job for this being my first grow ever
Although I mixed in 1 part perlite for every 3 parts ocean forest
 
Regular nute free scots top soil (has a ph of 7.0) mixed with perlite and thats all.
65% soil and 35% perlite.
 
Any soil will work. Miracle Grow Moisture Control soil will even work. Hell if you have your PH right, MG is great. There are a lot of people on the forums that will boast about how you have to use FF, or Orangics, or some other $20 bag of soil. With the right nutrients, you can get away with just using the$ 6 bag of Kelloggs soil from Home Depot.

Just remember, the soil you use is as good as what is in it. No one soil is magical, they all need a little fine tuning. I would start off with something less expensive with some regular old house hold fertilizers before spending a fortune on cannabis specific products, most of the time they are just over priced.
 
roots organic soil is great and where im from just a couple more bucks than what you buy at walmarts gardening section a big bag is only around $11
