I was wondering i had to remove two male plants. Soil mixture is 50% peat moss and 50% worm castings. Plus I have been using foxfarm big bloom. Can i re-use this soil for clones. Budget is tight.thank-you in advance.

definatly not for clones, you can cut the mix with fresh soil but clones need new soil,

I never reuse soil period. Its the most important part of soil grown plants


Placing clones in toxic soil will slow the growth or kill the plant.

Been there done that!

save your used soil and use it along with some compost or etc to prepare a spot for an outdoor grow.

I wouldnt reccomend re using soil. Soil has nutrients in it and after you grow a plant it usually eats most of the nutrients

I plant clones directly into soil and I only reuse if whatever I put in did not fully root out properly so no nutrients were used in the first place.
