After remembering what the soil is like around here I believe I will need an alternative medium to grow in the soil is black and absolutely full of small roots for about a foot down then it turns into clay. How would you work around this if you had to I don't want to use buckets because I feel that the 5 gallon bucket won't provide enough area for the root system which should be large due to the 6 months of veg and the 60-70 days of flower. Please help as this grow will be starting in a few weeks and I do not want to start these seeds and have no medium to grow in.
My idea was to dig a bed about 12 ft wide 60 feet long and about 1 foot down and put a good soil into the bed raised about 3-5 inches so a total of 17 inches is that deep enough.
