Go with Fox Farms Happy frog. It's mild enough for roots, I find. I like to amend my soil, but that comes with experience and time. And considering the amount of different strains out there, every crop is a new crop with ups and downs. So just keep it simple and most of all practice patience. Let the plant do what it wants to do. Just be there to help it along. Good luck

I normally go half bag, happy frog, half of ocean forest, 1/3rd bag of soil conditioner. Half bag perlite and them a jar of great white. It's a Mycorrhizal Fungi Root enhancer. I do add an amender as well. About 7 to 10lbs. I get the amender from tappin roots. And be mindful of the perlite. You want good drainage cause if not, you ain't growing shit. Lolz...

But I find that with all that, I also don't have to drown my plants in chemicals and shit. Just mostly seaweed extract and I use filtered water that's ph perfect basically. Once I add my additive, my ph actually drops just a lil. Still good enough for veg. In flower though, I'm at 6.4 to 6.8 and that's just perfect for me. Or at least the strains I've worked with so far...

Might I recommend googling Lucas formula. It's a good way to make nice sugary buds while you learn your plants behavior and get you up on your feet.
