Durban poison in soil

Madmike88started grow question 5y ago

I have Durban Poison coming on Monday and after buying them, I did some research (dumb I know). Don't have the time for a hydro set up. Will it still do good in soil and are there any tips for growing in soil?

I would prep your soil before you plant your seeds. Put it in the pots you are going to use. Soak it down and test the the runoff see what the ppm and ph is. If any adjustments need to be made you can do it before the seeds go in. It also will give it time to dry out some and be moist not wet. Best of luck on your grow.

Hi Madmike Soil works just as well and it’s more forgiving if you make a mistake. There’s a light mix soil from BioBizz that’s good for 2-3 weeks to feed your girls with nutrients. Press the soil down a bit, place the seed on top, and lightly cover it with 0.5 cm - 1.0 cm of soil, then spray it in the morning and evening to keep the soil moist but not wet. Hope that helps you a bit. Good luck and happy growing 😉👍

Erde ohne Perlite Is there a good soil for cannabis cultivation that does NOT contain perlite? Canna Terra, Plagron, and Biobizz apparently all contain perlite in their mixes, but I want to add it myself. I can get perlite for 9 cents per kilogram (5-10L).
