Adonis Living Soil

What pot size should I use for indoor growing?

We recommend a 4–7-gallon pot for indoor growing. The typical time for the vegetative cycle is about 3 weeks. We recommend a minimum of 15-gallon pots for outdoor growing.

How and when do I transplant my plants?

Make sure your soil is moist before transplanting. Transplanting dry soil can cause transplant shock. Clones can go straight into the soil. Seedlings need to have at least 2 sets of mature leaves before being transplanted. Plants can be started in small pots and transplanted to their final pot except for auto-flowering plants.

What should the PH level of my water be when watering my plant?

Having an excellent source of water is very important. Use chlorine and chloramine-free water such as rainwater, reverse osmosis or filtered water. Water should ideally be around +/- 6.5 PH.

You can add compost tea to Adonis Soil to enhance your microbiology, but it is not necessary. Adonis soil comes with pre-charged Biochar that has been bubbled in our compost tea made in-house by a compost tea expert.

HPS/MH, CMH are excellent lights that have been proven effective to get great yields of high-quality flowers.
