First Grow Questions

Poste

I am starting my first grow and I am doing it outdoors. I have a few questions. I plan on getting six starter plants, then putting them in pots. How big do the pots need to be? And how much soil will I need? How much will all this soil and pots cost because I am pretty broke and wont be able to buy top notch stuff? What are some good brands of soil that I could find at walmart? And do I have to use nutes because as said before, low on cash? If no nutes are used what kind of yeild can I expect?


Plus I am putting them in pots, in a sticker bush patch. They will get light, but I chose this spot because it is secluded, and not many animals or people will want to go trecking through stickers to see what that smell is coming from. Is this a bad idea? Sorry for all the questions but I want a good first experience.

id go atleast 5gal buckets but optimally 7gal or bigger. you can get some pretty decent indoor/outdoor soil at homedepot or lowes. as for nutes i would use a simply 2 part powder like maxigrow and maxibloom run about $15 each at a hydro store. or IF YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO the miracle grow bloom nutes will do a decent job. maybe less then decent. And for 6 plants in 5 gals youll need at least 2 and a half bags. for 7 gals 4 bags. run about 13 bucks a bag at my local homedepot.

Happy Growing

^ that.
before you put them next to other plants make sure you check for insects and whatnot, worms, crickets, anything that could be trying to get high.
