I agree with you on most point N2P2K, except for one. We have seen at this board time after time that pre-mixed nutes in potting soil leads to overfetilizatioon for most growers. Those pre-mixed nute soils are formulated for outdoor growth of heavy flowering, hybridized annuals and not for indoor growth of MJ. The heat, humidity, and increased light time break the time release cycle leaching the fertilizers out at an increased rate and lowering the soil pH quicker. Now not eevryone has this problem, but a majority of the growers do. Based on that, we don't recommend the Miracle gro potting soils.
