How often you apply nutrients is something you just have to learn.

You should flush twice a grow at a minimum.

sunshine advanced mix #4 is my medium of choice.

i used to use pro mix, but got tired of adding lime and perlite to it.

Cool.  This is what I happened to get for my first real go at this.

How do you amend this soil before you use it, if at all?

Thanks!

This is what I was looking for. I've been hearing (like Hawks said) that Ocean Forest is tha bomb. A buddy of mine was over at the Cannabis Cup, he was saying some booth was slinging bags of organic mixed soil, supposedly they've got a mix that you can cut open throw a seed and only water needed. Talk about too good to be true lol
