bad soil
sorethumbstarted grow question 3 years ago
the very bottom (1-1.5”) of my soil won’t drain. it’s compact and wet. becoming acidic(ph5, and the ph comes up to 6.8 the less deep u go) should i take the plant out from the pot and replace the shitty soil? i feel like i should. i just need encouragement and direction

You could. But you risk stressing her out. Autos hate being transplanted.
Given the fact your growing in a fabric grow bag- you should not have her sitting directly in/on her run off.
Do you move her and allow her to drain during waterings?
Try using something underneath that both catches her run off but keeps the bottom on the bag away from the water 🌱

Put the pot on a stand with holes or a couple bits of wood or bricks etc - this will give you airflow under the pot and it wont just sit wet in runoff which is probably your issue with the fabric pot.

It's never late to transplant especially when you see issues, just go bigger pot too, always works. You can lay thin lair of clay Peebles on bottom.

Mold on soilI used BioBizz LightMix with Monsterbud Mix from Amnesia and some mycorrhiza in the hole of the seed. 3 seeds after 3 days still not germinated in soil. Had foil on top of the pots for humidity. Probably watered a bit too much. What should I do and will my seeds still germinate?

Did I need to size up to larger rockwool cubes?Geminated seeds in 1x1x1 rockwool cubes. End state is to be in 5 gallon buckets with 8" net pot and clay pebbles. I figured the roots are too small to reach all the way into water solution still so put small cubes into 4x4x4 rockwool. Did I need to use larger cubes?

Clay pebbles at the bottomI'm thinking using this like maybe an half inch in 4 gallon fabric pot - for better airflow for roots & to prevent overwatering. They absorb the excess well and give off slowly.
Been doing this with my normal plants at home and it works well for them. Anyone with experience?
