I'm doing a ghetto grow box with miracle grow organic right now...I just started feeding them my 10-5-10 fert. and they perked up within 2 days really took off.
I hate to say it but I'm actually liking the organic soil from miracle grow
umm...the other things you have listed are used to keep your pH in check. Personally I would not worry about adding those this grow.

First of all, blood and bone meal is not used to keep your pH in check.

straight perlite...its basically hydro but in pots...simple.
then you add the nutes every other time you water or so and bam you have amazing plants of soil size and hydro quality

hmmm ya i'm considering a no soil mix, maybe a drip system would be more efficient on water/nutes since perlite is going to drain mostly... it would be nice i wonder how much a drip runs for...

There is a starting setup. Its not a drip but it will get you growing while you refine your methods.

i think i'm going to try this out, is miraclegro bloom booster good for bud(cuz i have a bit)? i heard that miraclegro is bad for growing weed does anyone here have a problem with it? also is tap water alright for hempy buckets? it suggests to "pH" water first for this tek, but my tap water has a pH of 7 so is that needed in my case?

Check out this grow: GreenThumb's Garden. This was done using Miracle Grow All Purpose.
If anyone tells you it sucks, they're wrong. It's not ideal for growing weed. But it will get the job done.

As long as your pH is in check you dont have to
Just allow tap water to sit out for 24 hours before using it..thats all i do though
umm as far as nutrients use something with a npk of like 10-15-10 but don't start feeding anything for a few weeks
and then you'll need another nutrient for when it needs more nutrients during flowering
miracle grow rose does work ive used it but obviously not the best but if its all you have then do it
remember to always feed the plants ever 2-3rd watering and i usually feed starting with like 1/4 dose to adjust accordingly..
i guess thats the basics to what i can recommend, if you start a growlog and post pictures and info throughout ill follow and help you out
