Hi guys. Anyone else using living soil? Will going from a 3 gallon to a 7 gallon be enough nutrients to get me through 9 weeks of flower? Should I go bigger? I know I can just ammend the soil and use compost tea but I'd rather just not run into any defecinces at all. Thanks

No soil, no matter how big the pot, will have enough nutrients to grow a plant through the entire flowering cycle without supplemental feeding. The combination of your plant feeding and water leaching nutrients, will lead to your plants needing extra food at some point. Surely it is not that hard to mix a watering can of fertilizer every 10-14 days? There are plenty of healthy organic supplements available. If you are worried about deficiencies, adding something at some point will be unavoidable. Hope this helps,......... Organoman.

Most grow soil have enough nutes to get them through the veg cycle. Don't think they actually supply enough p and k throughout flowering. Unless they make a soil specifically for flowering time, then I would feed some bloom ferts to your babies. I personally have found 5 gallon containers are a great size for quick grows. I like my planters to be near root bound before switching into flower. Seem to bud the best that way. Cheers
