After tons of reading and a lack of an area to do any real composting I've decided to try Kindsoil! ordering was simple and shipping was fast! just started 4 mephisto strains (since they are the absolute best) this will be water only in 3 gallon fabric pots. each pot will get 2.5lbs of kindsoil and then topped with coco loco. Germinating in rapid rooters as usual and will update with photo's and details regularly.
update 10-24
Bluetoof and 3 Bears have popped. strawberry nuggets is about ready to go but I the White stomper seed did not make the cut. Started germing another so it'll be 2 days behind. Put them all in Coco Loco potting soil with perlite at the bottom for some extra drainage and added the Heat mat because the temps have gone tits up here in the NE.
BeefWellingtons These are the first bum seeds I got from them. I've had great success with paid for and freebie seeds so I think it's just this batch unfortunately.
I've heard that about Mephisto from another grower on here that their freebies didn't work out either, however mine worked out great so, not really sure. I have to say the sour stomper is pretty good imo. Sorry you had issues.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I am using kindsoil on one of my grows. I think I used too much 3/5 of 3 gallon smart pot. My girls are showing what I think is Nitrogen burn. I'm going to give it another try as the bud production was really insane for 2 weeks.
