Using Nutes in Mg Soil

[ziggittyzag420]

i want to use nutes in my soil when my plant flowers, the only problem is mg contains slow release shit already.My questions are 1/if i use big bud or bud candy do i put just a little of the nute concentration in? my soils already 0.21 0.07 0.14
2/how the fook do you flush mg?
3/what nutes you all recommend for flowering?

Sorry bud. You should not have used that. My advice would be not to use nutes unless you see a defiency and then tread lightly. You can't flush with MG time released as it will release more nutes and burn your plants. If you add nutes like most people do with other soil...you will burn your plants. For flower you want something higher in P, but again...be careful. Also, a lot of people like to flush at the end of flower to get the nutes and salt out of the soil to improve the taste and smoothness of the bud....you won't be able to that as most of that time released stuff last for 6 months. Use a better soil next time.

I don't know if it will or not. If you have small seedlings, I would think about transplanting. If you are closer to the finish line, just try to finish. By the end of my first grow, I was kicking myself for not spending an extra 10-15 bucks on a 3-4 month process I had dumped a lot more money into. Get some good soil, it will definitely pay for itself.

I use ocean forest...some people will say to use something else. The take away that I think everyone will agree on is never get soil with time released nutes.

Heres what you do if you want to use MG soils;

Never use just one MG soil type; you need to mix your soils to improve the product.

MG Mositure Control (a lesser 'per-lite' alternative on the cheap; works decent)
MG (hot) potting mix (look for high NPK potting mix)
MG Organic Choice

I've done this..

40% - Moisture
40% - Organic Choice
20% - Potting Mix
1" layer of worm castings mixed into the soil.

From here bake the soil in the oven (around 165f). The reason i bake my soil is MG Organic..well basically all MG soils have tons of bugs and they are a living hell to deal with them all if you ever get infested; TONS and TONS of eggs.

For this reason alone you might want to avoid this and buy custom soils at your local garden store; soils without bugs and better makeup mixture.

You can also buy Microbe concentrate but its hard as hell to get (least for me) since it needs to be refrigerated during shipping. I think the stuff is called 'Vermi T'. This stuff will add so much life to any soil (baked soils like MG).
