Dust 6,321 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 well in Indoor i use to put 40% soil and 60% coco, and the soil would have been a little more concentrated on the higher part of the plant for the beginning of the veg pahse to make sure she will always find a little food even if i have a trouble to come watering. then i nthe deeper part i wold put the 40/60 mix. It should do good outdoor too i think add little perlite maybe if you can inside it will help a little with drainage. Good luck man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinky Pete 433 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I have a 40 soil / 60 coir outdoors funny enough. I mixed in about 5L of perlite. I am growing in 25L pots. The medium does take a bit to dry out if your medium is soaked and the plant is still young. But once she is bigger , then she will drink more. I added a 20mm mulch layers to it as well. Main reason is cause our sun just fucks shit up. And dries out the soil quick. Just make sure you flush your coco properlyLove and LightSP 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dfwi 50 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 if you are having problems with soil drying out try braking up some rockwool into small peices and add it to your mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
