Favorite Soil - Similar to Happy Frog Potting Soil

JLive3asy420started grow question 3 years ago

Favorite soil? Right now I am using Happy Frog potting soil in 5 gal fabric pots. I ran out of soil and need more for the last 2 of my 5 plants. Does anyone suggest a specific soil they prefer similar to happy frog? Best feeding schedule and method - top-dress or through water?

I really like Fox Farm Ocean Forest. I like it better than Happy Frog. With Ocean Forest I do not give any nutrients until the plant has about 5 nodes.

Triple mix will do with some promix hp mixed in. 85 parts triple mix to 15 parts promix hp should give you good drainage and aeration

Mold on soil I 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?

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200. I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new). Should I increase EC of the feeding water? I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.

expert opinion asked ? Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder)Maturity in day 49 flower from 60-65 (according to breeder) I'm not sure about the degree of ripeness. I used Co2 for a few weeks (1000ppm), the grower says ~60-70 days of flowering, so I would be missing 10-20 days, but they look quite ripe ? What should I do Thank you

Overwatered cubes in hydro? Too close to the sun? or effect of having add Hi All, I have issues with my first hydro grow - i effed up. I think i was too slow in the transfer over in the tank. Light is 200 PPFD, EC at 0.6, and barely added any nutes. Did i manage to overwater some of these plants by having them too close to the net pot?

Questions about watering I created a 40 ml solution, the instructions say to transplant after the sprout has grown to the top of the plastic cover and the roots are visible through the plug. The question is, is 40 ml of liquid enough for this growth? I think not.
