subs supersoil

[Flowtrail55]

Has anyone used Malibu soil?
I'm using Malibu soil, Bu's blend. Organic potting soil.

The guy at the hydroponics store recommended it. I was looking for Michigan mix M3 or SoHum super soil. No such luck First grow for me.

Seems like my plants aren't growing quite as fast at they should.
The larger small plant has yellow lower leaves.


The seedling seems happy. Its starting to stretch. Its a little taller than this currently. (turned up the light this morning).


Does this seem like a soil issue?
I know I have been guilty of over watering previously. But have since improved.

If this post isn't in the right place, mods are welcome to move.

Your nitrogen is getting locked out either by shitty soil or by overwatering, or both. The drooping leaves tell me it's the overwatering.

1. How often are you watering?
2. Does your soil already have nutrients?
3. How old are they and have you added nutrients yet?

I'm watering about 2 times a week.

Soil has amendments and nutrients in it already. Its fully organic and has lots of good stuff in it from what I read.


The seedling is about 2 weeks old.
The larger plant is probably 5 weeks. Maybe more? The growth was slowed from a serious over watering while a seedling. It survived.

I've cut back on my watering this past watering on both.
I'm doing my best to try seeing if the plants need water. Not on a schedule.

Try picking up the pots and seeing how heavy they are, pick them up after planting then after watering, You could try transplanting the bigger one into new soil, try and get rid of the old soil some and give it a week or so.

I'll try repotting this week.
Thanks for the tips.

are those clay pots? If yes, they are not recommended since they hold water.

Since you already had issues with overeatering I recommend fabric pots.

Also small plants and seedlings can go with 1 watering a week or even longer. Top of soil might seem dry but the core is most likely still wet.

The weight test as mentioned above is highly recommended as well.

I repotted to fabric pots.

When I first decided to build my own soil I looked at subcools soil ingredients . Seemed really good but not very cost effective for me at the time not to mention it needing to cook for 30 days. From seeing others use it, it is a good mix for sure.

He is also selling feminized versions of Chernobyl, Jesus og, and JTR in overseas seed banks, like alchimia web and grow barato… Sub was always so against feminized seeds it makes me think Will is just a money hungry type, it’s a huge bummer that I heard Joel from Norstar and Badger gave Will Space Queen to keep for good even though they weren’t on the best of terms with him. Sad to see anyone profit off of Subs death. RIP SUBCOOL we miss you brother.
