Conditioning Soil for Indoor Growing

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by cupcheck, Jan 24, 2007.

  1. in the spirit of saving money, im looking for different ways to condition soil prior to planting sprouted seeds. ive read that you can put banana peels in the soil, fish remains, tomato skins, etc...im wondering if anyone knows of any home-recipes for conditioning soil for an indoor grow. just a small amount, for 1-2 plants.

    thanks in advance fellas.
     
  2. From what I have read it is not cost effective to 'make' your own soil for small grows. You are better off buying good soil and not skimping on this part of the process.
     
  3. compost and perlite is your best/easiest way to ammend plain soil. hey cupcheck, i've got to ask. what the hell is that thing in your avatar? i've been wondering that for months.
     
  4. its the top of my snowboard...taken in tahoe a few years ago, i thought it was pretty tight so it became an avatar. heres the original...

  5. that is a tight pic.. i was wondering the same thing.

  6. ^^nice! i ride a burton supermodel 181cm. couldn't fit that in the pic!!!
     
  7. holy jesus 181!!! that is so long, i bet you can bomb down hills like no other. my 2 boards are 158 and 156. the 158 (in the pic) obtained a career ending blow to the rail, where half of the thickness of the board was cut through by a rock... :(
    new board is sick though
     
  8. You, Chicken shit.






















    :D
    Use chicken shit mixed in the soil. A friend is a chicken farmer and swears by it. I viewed his successful clone revival and they do look great.
     
  9. hahaha, man i didnt scroll all the way down and only saw you calling me a chicken shit or something...chicken poop though, sounds like an idea, anybody else??
     
  10. I just want to pass on a caution I've read about. any types of compost that haven't been aged correctly and screened and what all they need to do to it is risky. there are lots of nasty little devils in natural compost that can be dangerous to your plants, do some research before jumping in, I would suggest.
     
  11. Organic soil, sphagnum moss, worm castings, and perlite. Mix well.
