![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | all my mg soil was very acidic, and sucked for drainage. i buy big bales of promix. much better, much more, lower price, no nutes. you dont need to add nutes to soil if you will be feeding with liquid nutes. but if you want you can add nutes to soil and water with plain water. i usually do a little of both.

I duno man, I think its just easy to burn with MG and newer people have a tendency to over do it so it gets a bad rep for burns. But I've been using is throughout veg on my plants outdoors and they look great, no signs of burn or anything. It just needs to be used sparingly ![]()

it contains shitty ferts. most of wich are not needed, are too high in content, and not really the proper npk for cannabis.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Ive had good success with Miracle Grow Moisture Control Dirt. pre ferted and MG fert. but the cons of MG fert is the salt build up and no micro nute. over all id say it sucks the ferts that is. but i do like the MG moisture control dirt if u plan on using MG ferts or along those lines id say NO i actually liked the Peters Professional nutes opposed to MG when i was growing in soil.these were grown in Miracle Grow Moisture Controll soil w/ Peters Professional Veg/Bloom Nutes. ![]()

I got a couple of plants two and a half months old... both females from bagseed. Its my first time and i haven't done anything special, just watered them. I got them inside on my back window sill.They are about two and a half feet tall. They have started showing a lot of white pistals(a couple are brown), What if anything can I do to turn it in to some decent smoke? Good bud is way too high! Are the white hairs a good sign? | ||

the white hairs are called pistils (females privates ) yes white hairs are the best sign you can ask for. the quality of smoke that comes from that plant depends on its genetics but i am a firm believer that a good grower can make it better than what it was before id say just take care of them,givem what they need, and thats about it and as far as nutes are conserned i would under feed instead of over feeding it(burn). if the leaves from the bottom start to yellow out then up the feeding. well i hope u learn your plants sign language and good luck manMoe
