[iGrow420710]

So basically I am going to be growing for my first time in Soil (dont know which soil yet). I will be using Biobizz Base Nutrients and would like some help as to what other people find they need to use with nutrients in general or specifically with Biobizz?

Thanks for your help in advanced.

You don't need a bunch of extra stuff, no matter what the marketers and guys at the hydro shop may tell you. Just use a good soil (Fox Farms Ocean Forest with 25% added perlite is good) and a basic fertilizer and you'll be fine. If you have soft water, you may need to add a calcium/magnesium supplement.

Then, on your next grow, if you want to waste your money, er, experiment, you can try a bunch of extra junk. But you may find that it just adds cost and complexity and doesn't provide any extra benefit. In any case, keeping it simple the first time is a good idea because it's that many less things to keep track of.

Spend the extra money on a bigger and better light (and a pH meter and pH calibration solution and a PPM meter). Almost every first grow doesn't enough light to give the best results.

Good luck and have fun.

I agree with the dock, keep it simple, especially with soil. Get a good one, some type of super soil, like kind soil( or one that's maybe a little kinder on the wallet!) Get some organic base nutrients for late in the grow, when the super soil gets depleted( salt based Nutes will kill off the beneficial soil microbes you want with soil).

Then, start a worm bin.
The best supplement you can get for soil, is earth worm castings, that you can farm yourself, from kitchen scraps that you were going to have to pay to have sent to a land fill.
Uncle Jims worm farm has good info, and sells good composting worms.
Check out the thread Paracacelsus has going" Going full tilt, no till" he has a lot of good links posted to info on growing in soil. Also Nebulas tutorials on soil growing. I have a little bit on my home thread," Sitting on some organic fertilizer, or my plants have my back".

Basically, if you keep feeding the soil good organic matter, all the tiny little life forms that live in it, will stay healthy and happy on there own, and keep your plants happy, and producing some really nice weed. Happy growing!

Okay so i have come to the conclusion of using only bio bizz grow and bloom, maybe some top max with great white and have some cal/mag at hand

Protekt (Si), Cal/Mag and GreatWhite Granular 1 -have a profound effect on the health/success of your plants and they are inexpensive!
