Doesn't matter what method of growing (scrog,sog,bushes,trees).

But...soil is the easiest and most forgiving for noobs.

Is there soil at stores that are less heavy on the nutes? I know ocean forest has nutes already, happy frog has alittle less. But is there any soil that has no nutes in it? I wanna use my own nutes.

Even with soil you will need to use nutes, the soil does has some naturally, but all soil does and your plant will use most if not all of it within a few weeks.

FFOF has all the nutes a young plant needs for the first 30 days of life.If you're worried about it being too hot for freshly rooted clones or seedlings you can cut it with FF Lightwarrior.

Also keep your water and your nute solution pH BETWEEN 6.0 and 6.5

As plants eat,the EC (strength of nute solution) in the rootzone drops and pH rises allowing optimal uptake of all macro and micro nutrients.

To any FF, you may want to add some more perlite and a light handfull of dolomite lime to every cubic ft of soil.

I went soiless my first time. I used promix hp. It's all peat. Mixed in slot of perilite. Used nutes everytime I watered. It is almost impossible to over water as long as your pots have drainage holes. I had great results.

100% perlite does work but you would have to use a drip system to keep the roots moist; google 100% perlite cannabis and it should pop up.

Not the case with a hempy, no drip system required

We have grown hempy in 100% perlite, really no different than mixing in vermiculite, just need to water a bit more often
