    1st grow, indoor tent in soil. Few beginner questions

    3 months in and I just can't get any decent growth in soil in my tent until this last week. On to my 3rd round of seedlings, but they all kept dying at about 5cm high. Yellow leaves, then they dry out and wilt. Tried more watering, less watering, letting them go without for periods, Tried LED...

    WOW 50 litres - thats two bags at what i think is 50 AUD a pop. One plant per pot? Kind of blows out the savings of no nutes. I think Canna Terra is I'll be trying next, a mate recently admitted he wished someone told him to do it earlier, he's never had better results and so much easier than...

    I didn't go full organic, just a Osmocote seedling mix with some compost added. Not sure if it's been one of my issues.. but anyway there was a place I called and they said they have it and could ship it anywhere in Sydney.. it was pretty expensive Accent Hydroponics Address: 1/LOT 5 Clerke Pl...

    I'm just going to get a seedling soil https://www.bunnings.com.au/osmocote-10l-seed-cutting-potting-mix_p3020058 and little jiffy pots and get started, the confusion and hesitation is killing me. Gives me more time to mull over soil advice and instructions and find all the parts. Probably just...

    Wow real talk! I'm kidding myself if I think my 1st grow will be 100% what I expect. But 2 years.. ouch I hope I can stand on the shoulders of people like you and scoop the hot tips. The dream is 1 pound per grow in a 4 x 4.

    No doubt, but just trying it out and failing because of wrong soil is a genuine concern. I'm just going to get either the Easy As or the TurboDirt, whoever picks up the phone tomorrow and has some! Thanks man I need a slap to just move forward ;)

    Thanks for the detailed reply. When you say dilute it for seedlings with coco, is it just water that gets fed during this stage? What kind of containers you use? I was advised to just put seeds in the big pots they will live in for their whole grow, transplanting can be a fail point for...

    Great point - well if you just buy one oscar anywhere between $280 to $400. And we just don't get anything decent, it is a real problem the amount of PGR here. It's the catalyst for this lifelong smoker to learn to grow the best I've smoked. So in this spirit, so far I have not scrimped on...

    OR an ass load cheaper and easier is this https://www.bunnings.com.au/debco-25l-organic-potting-mix_p3010309 But this has fertilizer in it? So I just water with this.. or add nutes to the water? Is it an issue it already has 'stuff' ( 'This premium organic potting mix is boosted with organic...

    Fair call, I just thought it would be a pretty basic thing to ask but the Fox Farms answer not working for us Aussies is where it probably gets tricky. How about this https://accenthydroponics.com/easy-as-organics-water-only-soil-25-litre/ I figure anything else (non NPK soil or coco) is going...

    None of this makes sense to me being a noob. Who is my landscape guy? EDIT: I think you might be replying to the OP who mentioned a landscape guy, my bad. If you can drop a link to a real world product it may make more sense.. but I have no idea what you mean.

    https://www.drgreenthumbs.com.au/collections Where are the bags of soil? Or is this just a place to buy stuff to 'make my own soil' which takes months? https://www.drgreenthumbs.com.au/pages/super-soil-faq

    That is a slow release soil? It seems like what so many say to avoid. I'm not sure what you mean, get the soil and your 2nd link and combine them?

    Firstly - I appreciate the time take to post, and admit I'm salty from trying to self learn an area I have zero experience with. I am trying to do research but I'm in a country that has draconian laws and no one I know who has even tried growing has had any noteworthy results. So all I really...

    Thanks for the replies but they both leave me confused 'but the loam with mushroom compost from ur local should be just fine ' Is this even english words? I have no idea what you are saying. 'any peat based soil would be fine' - so many people on forums would say no. Brand? I dont know ANY 'peat...
