Hello there LisaSativa,
You could mix your own and premix it a few weeks in advance. I would recommend that you buy organic soil from a highly reputable dealer.
Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

DWC air pumpAnyone with previous experience, what's the minimum/optimum size pump for my air bubbler? I have a cheapo single line pump, I'm assuming it's enough but not optimum. Can anyone put a number on it in cfm? Is more always better? At what point do you reach diminishing returns?Setup. Substrates

Moss in 2nd weekHey everyone,
What should be the next course of action as moss has grown on the plants in the past two days (and it seems likely that the pH level is excessively acidic - source the internet)?

PhUp P.Hydro vs. P.Carb vs. BothPotassium Hydroxide Vs. Potassium Carbonate : or Both for PH+ up.
Does one have lower EC value in solution when used?
Does ones have better stability in solution for hydro or soil?
Does one have more reactivity with other elements in the grow?
Does one have higher PH?
