i am germinating some seeds and wondering if what i have ready and planed for my future plants is acceptable.

i have this organic soil mix with Peat Moss, Humus, compost, perlite & sand. its labeled High drainage.

also is Miracle-Gro food (24-8-16) decent? i have epsom salt for the magnesium supply.

i plan on doing low stress training & super cropping.

alot of people hate on MG ferts but i use them and they work and last for ever. You just gotta be careful, start out at 1/8 or 1/4 strength or you'll burn them, its strong stuff. You'll wanna get some MG Bloom Booster for flowering or some other flowering nute. IDK if you need the epsom salt. I might add some dolomite lime to add calcium and mag and make sure its ph balanced, even though it probably is phed already.

Your miracle gro fert is at the right ration for vegetative growth, but you might want to switch to formula with more phosphorus during your flowering phase. Does the MG list the micro-nutrients? You want to figure out if it is an all inclusive fert. May not need the epson salt if you Mag levels are good in the MG. Dolomite lime is a good source of Mag and calcium if you want to add it to your soil. It is probably already present in your bag soil mixture though so use sparingly. Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate and after time may lower the ph of your soil.
