  1. Ok I am on probably the smallest budget ever I even had to move back in with my folks but I have no money to buy nutrients in the store but I have my lights and a grow cabinet. But is there any household things you can use for nutrients I'm not trying to grow killer bud. Just quantity with decent quality to sell and get what I need to grow the better quality so I can have some type of income until I find a new job. Any help is very much appreciated thanks guys.

  2. Try here - with even a semi-decent bagged organic soil you shouldn't need to buy any bottled nutrients - just the soil and water. Look through the thread, though, and try and make a well informed decision as to which one is best for you in your area. Hope it works out.

    There's no reason you shouldn't be able to grow perfectly acceptable buds with a bagged soil.

  3. Well I could probably use miracle grow or garden soil I always took care of my folks garden and the soil is unreal. Tomato plants were growing 8ft tall... could I use my garden soil?? If I added sand or perlite? Sent from my N9100 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
     
  4. you could use that soil but it wouldnt be the best, and do not use miracle grow. youd be better off using just water

    At the very least these two companies are in bed together and their products go hand-in-hand. My mistake - I don't believe that Monsanto actually owns Scott's but they're best friends and do lots of business together.

    "Our principal consumer brands in North America are Scotts®, Miracle-Gro®, and Ortho®. In addition, Scotts is Monsanto's exclusive agent for the marketing and distribution of consumer Roundup®."

    It all makes me sick. The Miracle Gro "Organic Potting Soil" has absolutely nothing to do with my definition of Organic and never will.

    No offense OP. These folks are simply SCUM.

    WASHINGTON, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Lawn product company Scotts Miracle-Gro Co will pay $12.5 million in criminal fines and civil penalties for illegally including insecticides in bird food products and for other violations, the U.S. Justice Department said on Friday.

    The company pleaded guilty in February to charges that it violated the federal law governing the use of pesticides.

    The sentence imposed in federal court in Columbus, Ohio, includes a $4 million criminal fine, the Justice Department said. Separately, the company agreed to pay more than $6 million in civil penalties to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and spend $2 million on environmental projects.

    The two penalties are the largest in the history of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, the Justice Department said. The law has existed since 1947.

    "Scotts has a special obligation to make certain that it observes the laws" because it is the world's largest marketer of residential-use pesticides, said Ignacia Moreno, the U.S. assistant attorney general for environmental matters, in a statement.

    Scotts, based in Marysville, Ohio, said in a statement on its website that the conduct was not consistent with its values.

    "As we reach closure on these issues, it's important for all of our stakeholders to know that we have learned a lot from these events and that new people and processes have been put in place to prevent them from happening again," Scotts Chief Executive Jim Hagedorn said in the statement.

    The company sold illegally treated bird food for two years before it voluntarily recalled the products in March 2008, prosecutors said. It treated the food to try to protect it from insect infestations during storage, but the pesticides it used were toxic to birds and barred by the EPA.

    The company also submitted false documents to the EPA and to state agencies in an attempt to deceive them, prosecutors said.

    The case is USA v. The Scotts Miracle-Gro Co, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, No. 2:12-cr-00024."

    I could go on...
