Good Soil Needs Nutrients?

I'm planning on starting with:
50% miracle grow or similar potting soil, 20% bat guano - high phosphate fertilizer, 10% organic seafood fertilizer, 10% perlite added to potting poil, 5% sand (optional), 5% organic mix - roots, bark, etc.

Would i still have to feed them with my nutrients for either stage? i use Age Old Grow 12-6-6.

Any help would be greaty appreciated.

Peace

that should give you a month or two with out having to add nutes just be careful with the MG soil get it with NO nutes in it and you should be fine for a while

I don't think MG makes a soil that has NO nutes in it. Even the organic choice has poultry and cow manure in it.

no chemical nutes tho! poultry and cow can't burn them like chemicals do. i use organic and it lasts a few weeks on its own but i add alot to it.

Would you suggest a different soil? or a different combiation?

Fox Farms Ocean Forest already has most of the stuff you mentioned in it already. It's a much better soil for growing cannabis IMO.

It's totally possible to overdo it with organic nutes too..........

Nutes are nutes. Organic nutes tend to not have as high of NPK values as chemical ferts.

So would you say use Fox Farms and my Age Old Grow and it will be fine?

It's not that expensive. Especially when you add up all the other stuff he was talking about adding.

That might be the small bag. If not, that's a very good price! The big bags are about $20 where I live.
