You have quite a diverse indoor garden. Cannabis, Christmas cactus, nasturtiums, looks like some kind of squash seedling, and are those bunching onions?
Nice! You nailed it all:cool:

Yeah...usually chard, lettuce, arugula may as well use the side light, it works.
My cactus is about to bloom, so excited and the nasturtiums are my daughters. Dont know if my squash is butternut or acorn...but is one of the 2.

You know your stuff...this little guy sprouted in with my raspberries and I didn't have the heart to kill it. Do you know what it might be?

That's looks like some kind of deciduous tree. Or it could be a shrub of some sort. What's growing in the area? Any ornamental plums or cherries? .

There is an ornamental cherry tree in my neighbour's front. It looked to be similar to it, just thought I'd get an opinion from a good eye, thanks again:D

Ok, yes. I use Miracle Gro to grow my cannabis. It's what I used when I first started and what I still use to this day. I'm creating this post for all of the MG users like me who are getting tired of being bashed by others for using it. Im going to post positive proof that MG isn't a trash soil for growing cannabis. Currently, I'm in the middle of a grow where I'm using MG as my base soil. You can click the link below to see a video of how everything is coming along. I encourage everyone who use MG to post proof of your success so we can collectively quell the noise of all these naysayers.
I bought some MG moisture protection soil. The nutes were very low and l found it great for young plants. Found it great period except for the moldy chunks. They werent great. But all around ld buy again.

Of course you grow better bud than others. Somebody is always the top grower in their cohorts of friends.
And of course your consumers are gonna give you positive feed back.
I hear you ,the chemy farmers I know use Peters 20-20-20 among others and reuse their soil and always have nute issues in the beginning of their next dep run.
They buy my weed to smoke and sell their commercial weed. They give me their clones to grow their head stash for them to buy, i love that. Im organic based except for my pH down.
How come you dont go full or mostly organic? Your product could be even tastier. Ive had a few partial converts from the chemy farmers. Just showing them how to make a worm cast tea and using it once a week has changed their minds about using so much chemicals. That was literally the only change they made in many years to their systems of growing.
Know what ive noticed from chemy growers? They spend as cheaply as possible on fertilizer. But usually end up buying expensive fungal and insect treatments. Lol. Ive got some of them using predator mites indoors so thats a win ill take.
Worm castings work best top dressed, making tea kills all the baby worms. I like the worms in my pots.

Correct me if im wrong but is miracle grow not by proxy owned by monsanto and anyone with sense knows there not people to support i aint saying a good grower cant use there products to grow decent weed i wouldnt use it personally on moral grounds tho
Miracle Grow is not owned by Monsato/Bayer. The relationship they have with Monsanto is they are the sole distributor for Roundup. They are completely different companies with different ownership.

You should be good to go. I'd skip the bloom booster myself.

I've done 3 plants indoor, in a 3x3, with marshydro TSW2000, 100% miracle-gro soil and food , yield just under a pound.
I currently have 3 more outdoor, in 5 gallon pots, again 100% miracle-gro.
It's only beginning of July, they are already 5 ft tall.

I laugh at you guys dissing it. I spent $9 on the soil, and $20 on nutes.

and my indoor thats fully cured is clean and smoooth and gets me wrecked with 2 hits on a pipe.

Once you use better nutes and soil you will understand.
Personally I think it's embarrassing to say you grow with mg. If someone was to smoke me a joint and they grew their weed with mg I would straight refuse to smoke it. I have refused before. Got him to try better soil and nutes and now he sings praises to me about how he can't believe how much better his weed is now. I wouldn't even use mg on my lawn.

Here my confusion. It’s not Like this shit is cheap! I mean a lb of that organic fertilizer is almost 10$. I can get gh maxi grow or bloom 2.2lbs for 16$?? So I don’t get the draw. If it was like half the cost or something sure. But there is a lot of good one part salts out there that are the same ballpark $ as mg

By no means am I pro Miracle Gro, it definitely has a lot of problems. It’s usually too hot and full of gnats, but it can grow marijuana just fine.
People slam Miracle Gro but have never even used it. They just regurgitate all the cannabis snobbery. There are people using Miracle Gro and having better results than many using the most expensive cannabis nutrients and fancy soil. Many people have been led to believe that cannabis requires special products. It doesn't. All one has to do is look at one of many posts where the grower is using expensive soil targeted at cannabis growers and a dozen bottles of nutrients and additives with plants that are crispy fried and look like they came out of a bucket of KFC.

It's ridiculous what's actually going on. All these overpriced products that when you look at the label contains the same ingredients as some other product. But because the other product doesn't have some silly name and isn't targeted specifically towards cannabis growers many will just dismiss it as being no good even though it is perfectly fine to use.

I'm not saying Miracle Gro would be my first choice but if it was all I could get I wouldn't think twice about using it. The goal is to grow weed and you can do that successfully with Miracle Gro if needed.

I have a friend that buys whatever soil is the cheapest and feeds nothing but Alaska Fish fertilizer. They've been growing that way for decades and their results blow away much of what you'll see online from people selling a kidney to pay for all the expensive products they're using.
