    Hey, I'm wondering if I can germinate my seeds, and put them in earthgro for the first few weeks because I most likely won't have my ffof soil and ff soil additives till early may but I want to get my seeds ready for it, so would it be okay? Or should I just wait?
    Also in South fl, there are many bugs, so what would you guys and gals recommend for them?

    This will all be outdoor.

    Sounds like a good choice.I need the speed of the auto flowers to beat the thieves. Worked now for a couple of years out of the ground in July,no ones looking for buds yet,working for me.Good Luck my friend,

    Outside I really only use 2 products as mother nature self regulates for the most part..
    Green Cure for the powdery Mildew
    BT for the every present moth caterpillars.. AKA Budworms.. If you have moths in your porch light you'll have caterpillars in your buds..
    =========================================
    If your growing outside your going to need an IPM ( integrated pest management ) routine.. This one is mine..
    BT bacillus thuringiensis.. Caterpillar control.. sold under several names
    Safer = Safer Caterpillar Killer With B.T. 8 Ounce Concentrate

    To avoid the sprayer contamination issue I had last year I simply bought 4 sprayers
    http://www.lowes.com/pd_58855-1319-...l=1&currentURL=?Ntt=garden+sprayers&facetInfo=

    Most all of this can be found at Home Depot or Lowes except the Green Cure.. Hydro shop for that..
    Buy a new sprayer and rinse really well between solutions or buy multiple sprayers like I did..
    I do my treatments like any good farmer.. up well before dawn
    Spray BT on Monday..
    Green Cure on Tuesday
    Neem on Wednesday.. Only in veg
    Spinosad Thursday
