AMENDED SOIL WITH DEFINITELY MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I RUN ORGANIC SOIL FOR MY CANNA... AND IT IS AWESOME BRO! I WOULD DEFINITELY RECCOMEND IT! IT IS REALLY SIMPLE... I WILL GIVE YOU A KEY OF WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEMS IN THE SOIL.
1 = MOST IMPORTANT, DO NOT SLACK!
10 = YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH THE CHEAPER STUFF IF YOU HAVE TOO...

1) COMPOST/HUMUS- MAKE SURE YOU GET GOOD QUALITY EWC OR COMPOST. BEST IF YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN BECAUSE STORE BOUGHT IS USUALLY NOT "ALIVE" LIKE YOU WANT BUT IF YOU HAVE TO BUY LIKE I DID I CAN RECCOMEND SOME BRANDS LOCAL TO YOUR AREA.

DO NOT SLACK ON THAT ^^^^ OR YOUR SOIL WILL BE SHIT!

BESIDES THAT EVERYTHING ELSE IS ABOUT EQUALLY IMPORTANT.. HAHA COMPOST IS MOST IMPORTANT PART. IT IS WHAT WILL MAKE THE SOIL "ALIVE" AND BETTER THAN ANY NUTRIENT REGIME POSSIBLE.

ONCE YOU HAVE GOOD COMPOST YOU JUST MIX WITH EQUAL PARTS PEAT AND AERATION AMMENDMENTS (PERLITE (SUCKS...), PUMICE, LAVA ROCK, ETC)

YOU COULD BUY PRO MIX BUT FOR ME IT IS CHEAPER TO BUY STRAIGHT SPHAGNUM PEAT MOSS AND MIX AND HYDRATE IT MYSELF.

YOU HAVE TO HYDRATE THE PEAT FIRST! BEFORE YOU MIX IT IN...

AFTER YOU MIX THOSE THREE BASIC INGREDIENTS YOU HAVE YOUR BASE MIX... THIS IS PERFECT FOR CLONES/SEEDS/SEEDLINGS/ETC...

YOU WANT TO SET SOME OF IT ASIDE FOR WHAT I SAID ABOVE AND THEN AMMEND THE REST WITH THE FOOD...

I CAN'T RECCOMEND EXACTLY WHAT TO ADD IF YOU ARE GROWING TOMATOES IN THE SOIL BUT I KNOW WHAT CANNA LIKES... LOL

BEST ADVICE I CAN GIVE AND IT IS A QUOTE FROM A GREAT MAN WHO LEFT THIS SITE UNFORTUNATELY... I THINK THIS IS THE QUOTE "YOU CAN NOT AMMEND YOUR WAY TO A LIVING SOIL" OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS... I AM SURE I LEFT SOME SHIT OUT.

I grew some tomato trees in the front yard a couple years back. I ended up getting them to be 7 1/2 ft. tall and about 5 ft. across. The neighbors couldn't believe it. My old lady's mother said" Wow if he can grow tomato's like that, he must grow some really good pot plants", lol. Wish I had some pics to show you guys.
