answered grow question 5y ago
From what I see it looks light and fluffy and not over watered. Should be perfect for a seed to take off in. Best of luck with your grow!

Organic slow-release fertiliser tablets
Bought tabs with slow-release for 10-12 weeks -> usage 30gr/1 ounce per plant. Should I mix it with pre-fertilized soil of 3 weeks? (15L/4gallon pot) Their Customer Support told me the plants would be fine. I have to mix it in the beginning. Possibility for overfeeding????

Do I need to buffer Plagron Coco coir?
I never used this brand before so was wondering if any one has experience with Plagron Cocos Premium. Do I need to buffer it with cal/mag before use or can I use it directly from the bag?

Optimal pH for solution, when growing in 70% Promix BX, 30% perlite.
I'm having trouble finding reliable info regarding what to pH my nute solution to, I read that some like to look at it as hydro (technically soilless), and others view it as soil (due to being preloaded). So 5.5 - 6 or 6 - 6.5? HELP have done full grow using 5.5-6, peep the grow.

Lightening Soil - Coco Coir or Perlite?
I think my soil is a bit heavy and could have better drainage. Should I add more perlite or some coco coir for my next garden? My base is Biobizz Light-Mix. I'm thinking of supplementing it with 10%-15% of perlite or coco coir. Does this sound good or should I do something else?
