I’m curious about what certain soil I should use if I’m doing an outdoor/indoor grow since ima just put them in fabric pots and be able to move them from inside and outside just in case of the conditions not being good enough, but I was wondering what soil might be good and cheap

Absolutely all great answers so far. 👍However, if you're looking to just purchase your soil, I can only tell you what was suggested to me a long time ago, and that I still use to this day for both, my indoor, and indoor/outdoor grows. There are probably many great products, but what has worked super well for me is a mix of Pro Mix HP w/Mycorrhizae, Fox Farm's Happy Frog, and Ocean Forest. I use like about a 60% Pro Mix 30% Happy Frog, and 10% Ocean Forest. The Pro Mix HP w/Mycorrhizae supplements, and enhances root growth, the Happy Frog has a good mix of soil enriching nutrients, and the Ocean Forest adds some fish products into the mix for that extra kick👍 Kind of got to be careful with the Ocean Forest because it's pretty hot. Even just Pro Mix, and Happy Frog are a great mix imo. If you go that way, about 6 parts pro mix, and 2 parts Happy Frog has worked great for me too. Hope this gives you some more ideas.☺️ Happy growing!✌️

Hey mate, my latest grow ive used an organic soil mixed with sea weed mulch worm castings and perlite. Having good results, id do it again. Aslong as you stay away from 6 month slow release and dont over nute anything. I like going organic nutes because its easy to keep the plant happy. A basic healthy plant will give bigger and tastier buds then one with too much nutrients, out ph levels and deficiencies

Hi fella, I would say it depends on the nutrients you are looking to use and what style as each has it limitations!! Hydro - you pretty limited to synthetic, Coco - you get to grow with hydro nutes or organic (yes organic works in Coco providing it's 'treated' properly!!) I suppose the question is, what style of grow are you looking to do? All the best, happy growing 👍

Hi...... the cheapest way is to mix your own soil...... but that is only economic, if you are growing alot, because if you buy all the ingredients, you need some money ... but if you staedy grow.. its absolutely worth Never save in the growmedium... thats my golden rule....... either you get all ingredients, or you buy some ready mixed soil from Biobizz ( lightmix or allmix) or plagron ( royal mix) My reciepe for soilmix is like this: 3 Parts of Compostsoil 3 Parts peatmoss 1 Part Perlite and dolomitelime ( maggnesiumhydrogencarbonate) 50 gram per 15l soil
