Lazy soil recommendations

[Secretchief]

So I have this mate who likes to throw a few seeds in the yard and let them do their thing, no nutes or anything, it's hard to bloody watch, they should be 1/2lb plants but ends up with fuck all. I would like to set him up with something very low maintenance, I'm thinking of telling him to grab a couple of bags of the pre packaged soil from the local hydro shop, ideally something he can just water.

What does everyone use for low maintenance grows? Any recommendations?

Easy as organics soil https://easyasorganics.com.au/
or Dr greenthumbs https://www.drgreenthumbs.com.au/

Dr greenthumb looks good, a bit low on stock locally, any idea if the biodiesel branded stuff is good? They shop a nutrient line to go with it, which just makes me think they are not going to cut it on their own

Mix some dynamic lifter, blood n bone and sulphate of potash into the dirt, follow the instructions, can't go wrong
cheaper than buying shit shit

cunts will be 2 lbs +

I think he will probably be using pots, what would you use for soil mix?

coco

This is roughly the mix I use. You can sub quality coco for the peat moss

Coots Soil Mix Explained

About 11 years ago I got a medical card under the rules of OMMP (Oregon Medical Marijuana Program. Not to grow per se but to get access to the 'strain of the week' through some of the groups like Oregon Green Free and a couple of others which no longer exist thankfully.At the time Fox Farms...

This Coots soil mix is not our own, but it is what we have found to work best for most plants. All credit for this recipe goes to Clackamas Coot.

Looks good. Seems to be what the shop stuff is based on. I think I will put him on to a few bags of the dr greenthumbs stuff and if they want to put in the effort will go raw ingredients

If you're going with the Dr Greenthumbs option you can use the discount code serrated (20% off).

I've used the Dr GT turbo dirt and it is a decent mix. I personally think the Easy As Organics Living Soil looks to be a better mix and they also offer a 20% discount to TSE members using code JUSTWATERIT

Just depends which is more economic for you pick-up/postage wise

Sounds good. To be honest it's not for me so I would rather buy a box than have to worry about all that, has to be better than nothing

For an easy grow I'd get some coco with or without added nutes and get some Green planet backcountry blend dry nutes, there's 1 for grow 1 for bloom and a bloom booster I've used them and I still do and I find them piss easy and they do a decent job..just spread them on top every 2-4 weeks and water and bobs Ur uncles..I should add I only grow outside so I don't know about using them under lights...
