New Grower best soil to grow auto in uk

[Seanybo1969]

Hey just about to start autos for the first time. Decided to germinate in soil but need to know the best available in the uk?
Helps!!

IDK if Fox Farms Ocean Forest mix is available there or not, but it's a great soil to start with. I used it for 4 years and had no problems with it. People say it's a bit hot for seedlings, but like I said, I've had no problems with it. :dig:

Good luck and hope to see ya in the forums...

Plagron light mix,biobizz light/all mix,plant magic are 3 popular soils I see in use and all 3 are easily available in the uk. I think the biobizz & plant magic are organic as well if that matters mate. :smokebuds:

Im now armed with soil, went for the biobizz all mix and was easy enough mto find so thank you. Any of you used clay pebbles for moisture retention??

I have just started to use Canna terra professional soil. Easily available in the uk, but I think you made a good choice with Biobizz. Does Biobizz have perlite in it ? If not think about about adding 15-20 % for holding moisture

Yeah there's perlite in the biobizz all mix already, probably should have put the clay pebbles at the bottom lol
