Im on my first grow (just into flowering now) I started out my grow with some MG soil that burnt the hell outta my seedlings (partly my fault for adding nutes soon and being oblivious to the soil nutes. Anyways, i switched to this stuff called "Moo Grow" I like it alot, organic, and really fluffy stuff. Other than that I only use a flowering fert 10-30-20.

Soo...what is recommended to add, veg and/or flower cycle?

I might be adding some bone meal soon to raise the Ph a lil bit, Ph is around 6.5

thanks
if u can, fox farm organic is great, & black gold organic, the MG organic will work, but id add some perlite & worm castings to it. if u like the moo grow, & your not having any problems w/ it, why change. a good soil should drain well, be light & fluffy, dark & smell fresh. if the bag says anything about feeding for # of ?, then stay away b/c it usually contains timed released ferts (BAD), unless its a good organic soil. so: good soil, perlite, worm castings or guano, vermiculite (not necessary, but good), & some people use a bit of sand. & dolimite lime or wood ashes will control your ph better. check out my grow vid library @ http://www.veoh.com/channels/marijuanagrowing there are a couple of vids that go into prepareing your own soil & what not. i also got "see more buds - 15lbs in 80 days" but not online, they made me remove it.
