I can get my hands on Espoma organic soil 4-5-3 or plain old organic soil with nothing in it.

This is what I can get my hands on now:

MG organic soil (potting and garden)
MG organic ferts (blood meal 12-0-0, bone meal 6-9-0 and organic choice concentrate)
Alaskian Fish Fert
Schultz cactus juice 2-7-7
Dynamite foliage 18-6-8
Dynamite annuals 13-13-13
Dynamite mater magic(organic)
Colorburst 15-30-15
Espoma organic soil, garden lime and soul acidifier
Vigoro tomato and veg 12-10-5
Vigoro all purpose 24-8-16
Holland bulb booster 9-9-6

Anything you recommend?

Right now I am going to start 8 plants in Espoma / MG peat moss and vermiculite 40-40-20 with perlite base in 6" pots, 400w mh/hps. Four weeks flowering.

All advice welcome.

Thanks all.

The only thing i say about mg is the soil is very picky but ive grown many crops in mg soil.But i do plan on switching to fox farms happy frog to start my plants from now on.
Ive used the nutes and they are fine to use.

Well I had soil problems untill I got my hands on FFOF and those problems went away real quickly! I agree with you but for beginers like myself FFOF is the best IMO even for seeds. It is a good soil while learning. Later you can make you own or try different stuff.

I can get FF but it's far and $26 for 1.5 cube foot. I ordered one with 30lbs of EWC. I will use that for flower along with big bloom nutes. Right now that is my shitty menu but i won't buy any if it's no good. My peat moss is MG but I'm trying grow organic. The espoma soil is supposedly good.

fox farm is fine, just watch the feeds in it. its loaded with foods as new. the others have less and easier to control is why i suggest it for a newer grower. pro mix is about 700 to 900 ppm as new.

ya seen a few use this espoma stuff. i know nothing on it so no comment to it. mg dont know what organic is. why would their organic lawn stuff kill a buddies dog if its organic...its not. they are repeatedly sued by the fda for lying on labels. google it. they have also been firing their employees that smoke as it reacts to some of the nutes or crap they use and makes them sick. so your fired of you smoke...nice company.

i should have said i was referring to nutes not the soil and i agree with u on using decent soil dont skimp on the soil medium. lots of the soil on market has time release nutes that for MJ u cant control dosage

Yeah like I said I get it for $13 per 1.5 but to tell you the truth I would get it. How much are you going to need for your grow? If you skimp on soil you will regret it! And if you put it into prospective spending 26 bucks for two plants in 5 gallon buckets and you get 2-3 oz off each..... well you do the math and tell me that 13 bucks in soil per plant is too expensive. The other thing I like about FF is their nutes. It is made to go with their soil and they have a schedule to follow. Kinda idiot proof. Just start at 1/4 strength. the nutes are a little expensive but will last you alot of grows.

I only seem to buy miscellanious stuff from home depot like pots, chains, ducting, thermostats, cords ect. Nutes and soil I have always ordered or bought at a local hydro store. Some stuff you can over pay for from specialized stores but some you get what you pay for. Your end result will show in the end. But use what works for yourself and your budget.

well we have put the mg and others to the test for efficacy and all mg was real low thc and other cannabinoids. if all your wanting tio grow with is them 3 then you get low qualtiy is all. plaus the sources thjey use are low grade. not pharma or food grade,.meant for tomatoes not pot

so you know what n/p/k they need at each stage then. you have this machine as we do to test that as we do??? weekly
