alot of people dont even prepare a hole or whatever but one would imagine a nice hole with good soil and no rocks or roots would make for a good home for some murda marijuana roots

thats what i thought also and that why my holes are 4x deeper than they are wide lol.
hey can someone tell us hole diggers if we should mix perlite or something like that in with the soil just like we would with a plant in a pot?
1 hole i allready filled with perlite/soil mix inside a trash bag in it to keep other plants roots from fucking with it but the other 2 i just left empty because i really dont know yet lol

Why would you do that? I have never heard of that method....Honestly I find that plants grow better when planted directly into the ground(no soil mixing) just dig and plant, whenever I put soil in they tend to get dug-up by animals..

its in my yard and will be fenced off from my 2 dogs
or else they would for sure dig them up .and dosnt it make sense that if you dig a big ass hole and fill it with like 10 gallons of supreme soil that they would have lots of room to grow!

once it fills up a hole with ten gallons of soil the roots can spread out however much they need to into the earth!
and plants in pots are really easy to steal!!!!
thats why i wanna throw them in the ground

she spammed the board with her lame link. i had to go thru and find them all.
desperate for new members that they have to continuously come here seeking them. it's really friggin' sad.
what is the native soil like? i mix a little potting soil and perlite with the native soil and call it good. are there other plants nearby that grow well?

very hard and full of clay not many plants thrive around here. could i mix like you did or should i just dig and replace the soil?what is the native soil like? i mix a little potting soil and perlite with the native soil and call it good. are there other plants nearby that grow well?
i mixed, but my soil is really rich and healthy. you'd be surprised how many huge bags of soil it takes to fill a seemingly small sized hole.
i added some "clay amender" to my soil. we have a lot of clay as well. i also throw all my used soil out there.
