Using Schultz mix outdoors?

cowofsteel · #1 (**permalink**) 04-23-2004, 03:32 AM

I plan on planting all my babies outdoors around June, and I really want to make this grow worth while because I actually got somthing besides bag seed (thanks to a friend at the city

)... and the first question I have of many is should I mix the dirt I'm using with some potting mix such as Schultz Moisture Plus?

This has ferts in it but very little, i think it says 008-012-008 on the bag. and this is the description it gives: This is a rich organic Mix that includes Sphagnum peat moss, perlite, water holding crystals and a time released plant food.

I'm not really sure what I'm looking for exactly, so I need some help on this one, as a lot and lot of reading really hasn't cleared it up for me.

Thanks!

Also, since I plan on growing them indoors for a few weeks, what should I plant them in? I have a lot of Jiffy Mix, that moisture stuff I was talking about, and some regular schultz potting soil around the house, but I can go out and buy stuff if need be

well crap, I just noticed it says "great for all containers & hanging plants" so I guess that means not...

does anyone have anything they use? I think what I'm really looking for is something without ferts so I can add them later (plan on using regular shultz 20-20-20 for veg. and super bloom for flowering), so I was now thinking maybe something just like Jiffy Mix and mix in some water absorbing cyrstals in it??

Has anyone heard of sunshine #4 soil? I've heard some good things about it on OG

lol, sorry for all the questions and thanks for the help HJ
