New Grower Creating my own soil.

[420weedwizard]

Hey everyone, I am a new grower coming from a place in Asia where it is difficult for me to find brand name Soil and Nutrients. Nutrients I can order online and have it delivered however I cannot do that with soil and soils found locally tend to not be sterilized and heavily nuted.

I have managed to source these :
Klasmann Base 414

Klasmann Potgrond H 70

The Potgrond has 2-2-2 nutes pre added and is more fine, I have also sourced some Perlite that I will be adding for drainage.

What I would like to inquire from you guys is whether it would be better for me to go with the Base 414 or going for the Potgrond.

The second question I have is What else would I need to add to perlite and either of these two to create the optimal soil for starting my autos.

Thanks in advance!

Hello chum!

Pre loaded soil is not often recommend for autos.

I am a bit of a novice with soil, someone will chime in soon!


My very basic soil attempt!

Welcome!

I use Roots Organic Soil and love it. Great for 3 weeks or do before adding nutrients.

What I did was research soil mixes and just made my own from peat, worm castings, perlite and
Burpee a mix with coco

IMO you can blend a soil that's better than any premade 1
