This may be a little off topic but this is the only Hawaiian grow related thread I could find. I am doing an indoor grow and have access to tons of the local red soil. I'm wondering if using 100 percent Hawaiian soil would be great or if a certain mixture of it, potting soil, and pearllite would be better for an Indoor grow

wrong hawaii soil is pretty good in many aspects, when mixed with good idrt and compost/ peat moss it makes for a nice soil. It just has higher iron concentrations but that doesn't hurt the plant i dont think. I mixed land soil 50/50 with a soil mixture of nutes/compost/peat, and just watered a little bit with fish emulsion and used some cheap all purpose nutes, and tried to flush towards the end. I ended up wit ha big harvest, i think I could attribute the harvest to the red soil, it has many micronutrients that help the plant along a lot.

The soil on its own is not good, too dense with clay, it needs to heb arieated, and even boosted with nutirnets, it makes for a killer soil for growing plants.

hey guys i just wanna chime in about the red dirt, ive just dug a huge hole which will ultimatly be the resting place of about 5-10 plants. the reason i say bring this up is because i saved the soil to put back into the hole mixed with some soil bought from a local nursery and then watered with a secret weapon of mine for killer plants. i was wondering: 1. should i even keep the dirt i dug out which is mostly the red dirt? 2. how long should i prepare the soil for if so? 3. what else can i throw in there for added bonuses?

gonna give my 2cents into the mix. as a kid i remember my uncle used to live in wahiawa. hated the red dirt cause his kids socks was always red. but he used to sweare that the red dirt was the riches stuff around. he used it for all his plants. said if was good enought for pine and sugar, was okay for his plants. just my two cents.
