Thanks for your time and advice i was wondering instead of having to get that compost online and wait for it, would it be safe to buy seedling compost from my local graden center and use that? Thank you again

If you have a Grow Shop near you, pick up a bag of Plagron Light, or BioBizz Light. failing that you can use a seedling mix from B&Q. I used it in my autopots last grow, to great effect. Good Luck

Cheers man and thank you so much and sorry about wasting your time with noob questions, il go to my local grow and see what he has first. but im pretty sure my local garden center has some seedling mix compost from what your saying i should be fine using that to germinate my girls in their final pots.
Thanks man
Remember to add about 20% Perlite to the seedling mix, and if you go down the that route you will need to start feeding about two weeks after germination, starting with 1/4-1/2ml per litre. Ask as many questions as you like, that's what were all here for :smokebuds:
Cheers man yeah will do nice one.
Actually would peate moss on its own do the job with some perlite of course? instead of having to worry about other nutes mixed with compost that might burn my seedlings.
That's what most seedling mixes are anyway, peat and perite, and a little lime probably. Not familiar with exactly what you would have in Ireland though.
Thanks dude, im such an idiot sometimes i dont be thinking at all. But yeah might just go with the ordinary peate moss dont want to have any nutes burning the seeds in the germination process!
thanks guys for your help pictures will be up as soon as i begin germination.
Somthing to consider when ur dealin wi heat issues is a heat sheild for ur bulb,they ar cheap & they do work with keepin the direct heat of the top of ur plants,i fnd i can lower the lamp a little with them on. Hav u thought of just gettin biomix light soil,ur usin the nutes yes? If ur starten them in their final pots then use the light mix ul just need to feed them a bit sooner from usin the allmix. Just a thought,,Happy grown m8..:smokebuds:
Cool man will have a look at those now that you mention it. Cheers for the advice. I am using nutes amd im going to stick with the soil recipe and see what happens from there, im sure the biomix is great its just i really want to see what will happen when i use this soil recipe. If it turns out bad this time i grow il go defo look at changing my soil to the biomix.
Thanks again for your time man
