Heck yea! Got my cup, got my dirt, got my seeds, even got nutes for later. I'm ready to go!

After you get a grow or two under the belt, it's OK to call 'dirt' SOIL, LOL.

Again, after a grow or two, there will be a diff between dirt and soil.

 

[~Dankster~420]

Aw hell! Dirts dirt! Lol

 

[SxIstew]

The difference is simple. Dirt you can dig up in your back yard. soil you pay for. HAHAHAHA

What is this "soil" you speak of? Is this some kind of super secret experienced grower trick?

That is a joke, correct?

[h=3]soil[/h]/soil/

Noun The upper layer of earth in which plants grow, a black or dark brown material typically consisting of a mixture of organic remains,... Waste matter, esp. sewage containing excrement.

Verb Make dirty: "he might soil his suit"; "a soiled T-shirt". Feed (cattle) on fresh-cut green fodder (originally for the purpose of purging them).

 

[SxIstew]

Don't use excrements

Sounds like witchcraft to me...I think I'll stay away from that....my dirt seems to be working ok so far.

speaking of soil and dirt, i have recently decided to refuse to buy soil since there is so much everywehre on the ground lol, im trying to find a place with the best soil, so far ive found if its under a tree near a stream or water the soil is a little better than other places, who esle has some good ideas where i can find nice dark fluffy soil. like i said under trees and on hills where water drains ive found to be the best, any other opinions on this?



edit, yes the contest DOES start today!!! good luck all

Naw man, I was just razzin ya.
Everybody has their own 'soil' or 'growing medium' that they prefer, it's just a fancy name for 'dirt', like calling your car an 'automobile'.

Sounds good, but if you have a place where grass clippings usually blow when you mow the lawn, or something might be good also.
I've been wondering about this pile I have that's basically flattened out now, where I brought home a truck bed full of woodchips about 5 years ago and dumped.
Now it's gotten soft like Peat, and has all kinds of stuff growing .

thanks for the suggestion baka...i am just tired of spending 200 dollars on a ton of soil every year when the shit is all around me, sooner or later im going to just make my own soil by mixing tons of good stuff in with regular soil but right now i dont have the loot to buy the things i need. it gets expensive

Iowa is suppose to have the best soil in the US, right in our backyards. Maybe I need to start using it!

Hey AK. Not sure if there is a horse farm in your area or not. THE BOTTOM OF THE 'OL SHIT PILE. the Richest soil you can find. AMAZING stuff. it DOES NOT work the same with cows or any other animal. lol but OLD OLD horse manure becomes some very rich soil. I've thrown random bag seed into the pile I used to use and plants would grow within a week or 2.(I worked at the farm so obviously had to remove the visible plants before anyone else noticed what they was.)
