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!

Can I pour the earth very hot in the blazing sun?
It's brutally hot with us and the plant looks like it wants water? Can I water the soil on the edge of pot watering without hurting the plant?

ANY UK SOIL RECOMMENDATIONS ?
Hi Guys, can anyone recommend a commercial soil mix suitable for transplanting outdoors in the UK? I'm currently using Biobizz indoors but looking for a more readily available option as all the grow shops are currently closed leaving Homebase, Wickes or B&Q as my supply options.
