Hi guys, sorry for a stupid question, i would really appreciate peoples advise, i am a complete beginner.

I was advised mirical grow soil has all the minerals etc needed, easy to grow, then some say its not good . is this way better or using coco plus soil and feeding it maxicrop seaweed once a week?

also in mirical grow so many minierals etc but maxi crop seaweed liquid does not show iron etc and so many others, so thought might not be enough, thank you to anyone who can advie whats easiest way without plant .

thanks guys.

Tbh, go with a soilless mix, peat based. Use dry chem nutrients, like jacks, etc. Light doses until you're familiar with your plants.
Miracle Grow soil has time release granules that will burn the shit out of your plants.
Keep it simple, overdo it and you'll hate yourself.

Miracle gro will burn your plants when they are young. If you can start them in a smaller container and mix half jiffy half miracle gro, then when they are more mature plant them in straight miracle gro you will be better off (if you choose the m.g. soil)
I personally started growing with m.g. and had great success. Just know you will not have to add any nutes to it. If you are just learning .... There is nothing wrong with starting with m.g. Once you have a grow or two under your belt, then move on to more proper substrates.
