Hi guys. I'm not new to growing but it has been a while. I used Pro-Mix for containers with added perlite and vermiculite in the past and loved it. Now I have some of their organic mix. I made my mix ration 25% Pro-Mix Organic, 25% Pro-Mix for Containers, and 50% perlite (It would have had 15-20% vermiculite if I could find it right now).
Has anyone here used a mix like this? I'm planning to grow plants with a lot of side lighting, so I am going to grow a plant that is about 12" in diameter, about 40 inches tall when finished, and full of bud top to bottom. How well will this mix suit that?
I'm using 8 inch plastic Wal-Mart pots. How do I best go about growing such a tall plant proportionate to the root space available with this mix?
For extra fertilizer I have blood meal, urine, epsom salts, and I have Expert Gardener brand foliar sprays(veg and bloom) just for backup.
Is my plan solid, or am I missing something?
Edit* here is my desired plant profile
