preparing new grow.

[Wild atlantic growman]

Hey stones. .gona start a new grow this week...couple of quick questions for anyone with experience...got a bag of canna terra pro plus soil..I know it has everything it needs already..but how long will it last before I need to start adding nutes...shud it take me tru into full flower ..another question would anyone recommend I still add 30% perlite even tho it's pretty mixed .or will I fuck up the premix ph or feed system ..
For the record plan on germin 1 expert seed sweet skunk auto,1 expert seeds caramela auto and a barneys farm nyc sour diesel .

What are the ingredience in your soil?

 

[Wild atlantic growman]

It don't say an awful lot..peat moss..bark with antiseptic sumtn or other..trace elements and chelate. ...it does say now that I read it again that it is ph structured for release of the right nutes at the right time.so I'm thinking I shud just use 100% what's in the bag ..i suppose il see what ever deficiency comes along and that shud tell me when to feed manually..??

Okay Growman, we will see how this goes. Still be prepared to need suppliments for your plants. Just in case.

Peace

depends PH no unless it VERY VERY airy ,but feeding system it will slow or the more it airs up it'll even stall it to a crawl since no food(s) will be nowhere as active as a standard aerated soil. if you have a pic on the bag that'll help. what does it say on the bag? upto a certain time and/or time like,through vegetative and/or through flower or blooming cycles?

but honestly a pic of the soil,of the bag would be (for me of course) be immensely helpful.

Hey Eyes bro hope all is well have not used the soil Wild Atlantic was talking about or come across a pic of the back of the bag, but the following is some info i pulled from the Canna website if its any help to you.
http://www.canna-uk.com/canna_terra_nutrients_and_potting_mixes

Terra Professional Plus
CANNA Terra Professional Plus is made up from 100% organic raw materials each of which is of the highest possible quality. Top quality white peat is one of the first class ingredients used and tree bark, which is used as a substitute for perlite, is also added. CANNA Terra Professional Plus contains trace elements and chelates, which ensure that the plants are protected as they grow. CANNA Terra Professional Plus is enriched with special feeding mixes that contain all the elements that the plants need for their first week so no extra feeding has to be given. Out of the bag CANNA Terra Professional Plus are preset at an EC of ±1.3 and a pH ±5.8. As well as this CANNA Terra Professional Plus accelerates growth and root development putting the plants in top condition and enabling them to resist disease and attacks from pests.

Thanks bro, yeah all is alright. bored and working LOL i went to the site from that link and a few things stuck out to me,but one is the bark amounts in there.adding 30% perlite might be an issue,and the stance they have taken with the bad information they talk about ,about Peat.i really dont like that cuz its wrong and incorrect. buuut, from what it says ,it says its either like a Dr earths simple mellower type of mix which is great,or its like a photo type of soil which will need to be cut in half. do a few germ tests with it. some crappy bag seeds or something. always do that to test a new soil. I know I do to see the start of it.,tell me tons.LOL!

Good to hear all is well, if not be it working and bored lol.

Looks to be a pretty airy soil from what i can see from UK users in a few forums and have seen it compared to Bio Bizz and Plagron Light Mixes. Found some analysis details on the site also that were in a PDF which i converted over to pics for a bit more info.
