New Grower Soil and PH question.

[Scyntra]

well as with anything you have to try different amount to see what works best..and you NEVER start plants in straight supersoil... take my RRF, in 2gal pots it likes 1/2 a pot of supersoil 1/2 base soil... while my RRF x Purple Jems can take 3/4 supersoil without a problem...the biggest problem is people don't let it sit long enough before using it (way to hot), or they don't put a nice layer of base soil on top of the supersoil (the roots should seek out the soil not be bombarded by it) I have grown a few random auto freebies too and never had a problem using 1/2 a pot to start, have had a few that needed more but if it does use up the soil before its ready I just topdress with a little supersoil and water as normal...

Is there anyplace on the bag that lists the ingredients and their percentages? Even their web site doesn't tell you anything.

i have not gone to the store yet just online if you look close it is 0.10-0.05-0.05 for NPK is this safe for seeds?

 

[Muddy]

That's pretty mild, I wouldn't think that would be a problem.

That harvest organic soil works fine. I grew an auto seeds transiberian in that same exact stuff and got 90 grams dry. Thing is.. with that soil you want to cut it 50% with perlite. I am using that same exact soil again right now on a auto seeds purple cheese.

It will work just fine.. just where there is damn near 0% NPK I would start feeding pretty early on.

I use general organics GO Box and after 7-10 days I give it a very light feeding of Bio Root and Bio Weed.. Bio Weed is nothing more than seaweed and kelp basically.
