So I've planted 6 JEMs in soil, and 6 LowAsis x Jems as well, all in my new, big, fat TV cab.

Let us hope this goes better than my current DWC.

They are in miracle grow moisture control soil with a little extra perlite and a couple hand fulls of earthworm castings. Each is in it's own peat puck, already in the soil. 1.5 gallon pots.

I dont know how they will react with the Miracle soil, they dont like chem newts. i hope it goes ok. that soil is on my worst soil ever list, compared to Happy Frog or Ocean Forest. That stuff, is some of the best, perfect for organic base growing. Will be watching for updates.

While it's not the best option, miracle grow is available everywhere. Also, MDanzig (blustreak, masterlow, sour60) uses the same moisture control stuff for all his grows.

Moisture control is okay when nothing good is available, but I hate anything with time released ferts. I agree HF and OF are the way to go.

:P I've never been a soil connoisseur, and have used MG soil from my very first soil run until now. NEVER had a problem. The time release ferts only really last 3 weeks or so with cannabis, after that you've got to feed yourself anyway. Not like the capsules are still popping after 4 weeks of watering. Of all the soil available for purchase locally in my area, it's the cheapest, most fortified, least-wood-having mix. In fact I've never SEEN OF or FF soil for sale in stores, I was always under the impression you had to order it online. F that.... I'm not having soil delivered.

All hydro stores sell it. If you don't have a hydro store within hours of where you live then I guess MG it is.

ya KC,, you have to go to your local hydro store. they will have all that good soil, I just planted 32 FEM LR#2,, 16 in HappyFrog, and 16 in Ocean Forest, to do a little comparison to see what I want to do in my next 400 Watt AF SOG. So, far Happy Frog is doing better, but very early on, will take another week or so to figure it out.

How much did that MG soil cost you? and what the amount of soil you get in liters, it will say on the bag.?

any of you guys try the mircacle grow organic soil?

krazycure · 07-21-2009, 11:51 PM

Ahhh, you have to love a nice, easy germ. All 12 are looking fine. 8 popped after 48 hours, 2 in 72, and the last two came up after 96. So, for averages sake lets just say this is Day 5 for all of them.

Original JEMS:

LowAsis x Jems:

I went ahead and put sand on the top to discourage those damn fungus gnats. BOY do I hate those bastards.
