Question about Mother Plants

[smokedoja]

It seems like there should be a "sticky" on maintaining mother plants but the only one i found was some bonsai thing. so anyways i just need a couple questions answered. Ive been growing for a few years but still havent used mother plants.

I've actually never grown in dirt, so im a little nervous about that.

What kind of dirt do i use...perlite vermiculite??

What kind of nutes should be used on mother plants??

these are my 2 main questions i think i can figure out the rest

plz help!

it just works out the same as the bonsi thread. only bigger.


the best soil you can get +,,,veg nutes

keep it green
highlander.

ps. you dont have to use soil i keep my mums in coco and ive never had any real probs

IMO i would use a good organic soil, FFOF is good, maybe add some perlite, keep it simple for a mother.

If any nutes at all, just simple veg nutes with high N levels....

Soil is a lot easier than hydro, you should do fine....

FFOF and and a dose of grow big every few weeks works

keep em cut back all the time, dont be afraid to really chop em back all the time, all the new growth is easier to clone then big ass limbs and tops imo, peace good luck
