Yeah I agree. I've been thinking about this. I'll grab the earthworms this week and some soil. Good stuff blew!

No worries!Hey Dobe, sorry I missed this post before.
Glad to hear you are going to give soil a try. Let me know if you have any questions about anything brother! I am happy to help any way that I can!
I am using Coots mix, but it is a fairly time consuming deal to get started. And lots of sourcing. So I would recommend KIS Organics nutrient and mineral pack! It is a flat $50 and gives ypu everything you need to make 30 gallons of "water only" soil. Then you can grab some perlite, compost, and peat moss and your all set. You can of course buy extra odds and ins to maximize growth and photosynthesis! Shouldnt cost you more than $200 to make 10 - 3 gal pots!No worries!
My basic plan is to grow autoflowers over the nicest summer months in my back yard, in 3 gallon smart pots sitting on my deck. I haven't really done any research yet as to soil, but I'll be looking into a soil that is newb friendly. Dabber suggested Kind Soil which is really expensive to ship to me. I’d prefer to buy something locally. I’m not averse to mixing up my own but have no experience there. Dabber also suggested Stank Soil which I assume is your recipe?
I have no experience with autos nor with soil, nor even with outdoor growing. I’m not worried about making mistakes as my indoor spring harvests should set me up well for the rest of the year. So I’m a bit of a blank slate.
Any tips you or anyone who follows has would be much appreciated.
Super healthy looking plants Van!
They all look good though....
Ahh, the life of constantly shifting plants around...welcome to my world VS! And once I flip the AK, that's another bit of moving every night .
I may not have been very clear. KIS also sales a water only soil. But I was referring to their nutrient kit that allows you to cut shipping costs out as long as you can source the aeration, compost, and peat. That way you don't have to pay to ship all that stuff. They are a pretty amazing company and what they stand for is why I use them. And as Van said, it will be very easy to re amend that soil for another use. Reducing the costs even more! And I could be wrong but depending on your area I would not really trust a "water only" soil other than those that have been formulated for our target plant .For what it’s worth I’m in a major city, that also has farm land close by - so sourcing might take some legwork but would be doable. I have a pretty popular garden center very close by, as well as box stores like Home Depot.
KIS looks like a similar situation to Kind Soil, where I’ll pay 1/3 of the price on the product and 2/3 getting it shipped and imported. What are the chances local gardening centres and the like would have prepared “water only” soil such as these?
I love the idea of a prepared soil I only need to water as a newb.
Dobe, i too was intrigued by the Kindsoil....until i found out about shipping. My version of Stanks' soil ran me around $650 CAD, I bought everything locally other than a couple of amendments.....to save on shipping. That made me about 230L.. Pm me if you want locations for everything I purchased.....dont wanna step on any sponsor toes.For what it’s worth I’m in a major city, that also has farm land close by - so sourcing might take some legwork but would be doable.
