Recycle used soil

Doofystarted grow question 1mo ago

Do u think recyling used soil, makes a difference? Is rot going to appear in the dirt from old roots? Are there lots of nutrients in the soil? Is reusing soil productive?

Roots will rot, but right humidity, few bacterias, black bag, no direct light and in 3-6 month you can reuse it, BUT : How many and what nutes are inside, has your ph been stable and so on ... About pest problem i dont speak even, if you had, youll have more, if you kept bag in wrong conditions - you can catch more ... I dont do my own soil mixes even, i found its cheaper and more reliable to buy branded one and enrich it ...

Golden rule.......new plants, new soil. Recycled soil carries disease risks, built up salts and increases the chance of insect infestations........not worth risking an entire grow by trying to cheap out on the soil.
