censorthis Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hi guys, Im starting a new grow in a week or so and am going to be growing some fem strawberry cough for my anxiety. I was planning on growing in a small attic with some high powered cfl's and with soil and canna nutes. the area I have selected is fairly large but has limited ventilation. Could some growers on here give me some advice on ventilation, lighting, soil mix amd anything else I might need to know ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badseed77 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 If you wish to use soil and canna nutes i would suggest getting canna terra . I have not used it but it would certainly take alot of the guess work out when it comes to growing in soil . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badseed77 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I thought that canna terra was a mix of peat soils , my local hydro shop lead me to believe it is a soil mix ,, i could be miss informed On there web site they say it is soil mixFrom Canna site : CANNA Terra Professional Plus formula was developed to fulfill thedesire of creating the purest soil mix possible and to obtain the besteffects with CANNA TERRA nutrients.

MongyMan Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Yup sorry 77 I stand corrected....I thought it was just a mix of coco and peatmoss pretty much. canna site says ". It contains a blend of sphagnum moss peat, compost, worm castings, perlite and a special 'natural plant booster' which is a blend of organic ingredients.

The Hash Nibbler Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Organic composition doesnt mean its soil............ you were right the first time Mongy, Canna need to change their stuff.It confuses the piss outta me too.......... Terra means Earth........so ya make a mix that has no soil in it..............and call it Terra. :facepalm: Then ya put it in the shops and dont tell the knob Jockeys behind the counter that its a organic substrate, not a soil blend. So as most Knob Jockeys do, they see its brown...... "Oh, Thats soil !" Treat it like soil and see what happens.......... it won't like the higher PH, and also won't like being fed anything other than Terra, because if it isnt chelated, and salt based, this stuff will hang onto the salt like a Pommie with a fresh serve of chips...... Best of luck.... Seems Canna stopped being specific after Van De Zwaan left. Peace. Nibbler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badseed77 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks for clearing that up Nibbler . I only suggested canna terra cause so many new growers seem to struggle with store bought soils , i just thought canna made it simple for all us stoners , instead they confuse the shit out of us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hash Nibbler Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 No wukkas man, I been miffed by it for ages badseed, me and fellas in chat even spent an hour or so chatting about it. Canna site is pretty vaugue about it too, which doesn't help. And Yeah JK , he was the Head Chemist at Canna for years, then left and formed H&G. Small world huh? . Cheers, Nibbler.
