I have most of my plants in mg potting mix that feeds up to 3 months they are about 2 weeks old should i change the potting mix? also can someone send me some pictures of plants 2 weeks of age? Thanks for the help
dude im about to start mine off with that same mix...send some pics of your plants so i can see what they look like??
and if you want your questioned answered ask smoknMXracer, he said that it made hi killer weed, he already grew with it, ask him about it...
to tell you the truth im about to start my first grow...i dont even need a fan, i have the wind in my attic that comes threw every 5 minutes lol
The timed release is not the best thing for the plants. Just get you a neutral soil and provide your on nutrients (I recommend Fox Farms). I have heard MG will make the bud taste bad and doesn't provide the best nutrients needed by our plants. With that said, I used MG to start and they did well although about 4 to 5 weeks in they drooped really bad. I flushed the plants and repotted them and they came back strong almost immediately. Just go with a neutral soil and add a little perlite and maybe some dolomite lime. I'm sure MG can grow a plant from start to harvest but it's not the best thing for the plant.
listen to halfbreed hes right on, you can grow in MG but its risky, bad for your plant, and a dumb idea. MG is bad for mj, mabye good for your house plants, but bad for ur mj.

sigh...come on guys, you all are cool but have either of you actually done a grow with MG potting mix? i have. it kicks ass, i dont have to feed them till flower, ph is right, no nute burn. i am high as **** from the weed right now and it tastes delicious. PLEASE dont spread this rumor about MG (esp. potting mix) unless YOU PERSONALLY have tried and failed with MG. thank you
I have grown with MG, and I would agree with nugsmoke, if you use MG soil you may not need any ferts for the first 2 to 3 months if growing from seed. If you do use MG soil just be careful. When I grow from clones I use a neutral soil which if you live in the states any walmart will carry in stock, it's just soil for growing plants that has no ferts added to it. later

PLEASE dont spread this rumor about MG (esp. potting mix) unless YOU PERSONALLY have tried and failed with MG. thank you i've used mg before, on long ago failed grows. plants truned totaly yellow from top ta bottem. i didn't know why for along time.those grows weren't serious though just a kid fuckin around, but i know what mg does, if you add it up i probly killed 50 plants or so with it. at once.(not that dumb) if you want to use mirical grow u better know what your doing, and i don't think these 2 know. i still say stick with somthing more beginer freindly, like anything. (by the way i mean chonic man and blisted, no offence guys) i can't speak from experiance on the soil though, just that nast asty blue fert. i really don't know about the soil, but i wouldn't use it, because theres definatly better stuff out there. plain soil will feed your plants for about 3 weeks before you need ferts anyways, why risk it? im just an anti chem guy i guess.

Some of the time release in MG aren't used by MJ. MG makes it easier to burn your plants. You're obviously more experienced than myself so I can't argue with you nug. I wanted to go Organic anyway, so no MG for me.
"you reap what you sew" "you get what you pay for" whatever phrase fits the situation miracle grow is a cheap, hands free, no hassle deal. your plants will end up the same. yay organic boo "easy all in 1" ferts/soils
