Pre-grow in 1L pots after germ? (Autofl.)

Barbapapastarted grow question 3 years ago
Not sure if i should put straight in the big pots after germ. I’m going to use Batmix, but as this can be overkill of nutritions on seedlings i was thinking either dig a hole in the pot and fill it with lightmix and the rest with batm., or put them in 1L pots of lightmix first?

Thats ok man, I use 15 litre pots. With a little clay pebbles at the bottom, I mix 10lts biobizz light mix with my grow nutrients that add just 5 ltr light mix at the top. Give the roots a chance to grow without too many nutrients there. With your batmix i would fill half your pot and half with light mix at the top. Batmix can be very rich in nutrients. Hopefully you should see good growth after the first couple of weeks. I hope this helps

Thanks for the quick reply BraveheartGenetics! So as I understand you mix the more nutritioned soil with lightmix to make it less heavier on the seedlings? My plan was to literally dig a little hole in the batmix and fill that up with lightmix with the hope it takes a while till the roots reach the batmix haha. (Sorry if I didn’t understand correctly, English not my native language)

Hi mate, I kinda do the same thing. As i use dry amendments i mix the grow nutes with 2/3 of the soil and just light mix for the rest. Had no issues using this technique. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing
