The Dirt on Dirt

In Episode 1 David rambled on about the why’s of growing cannabis on your own. He covered materials and supplies, planning a grow space, and shared some of his favorite resources. In Episode 2 he starts to get specific and delves deep into the topic of soil. Soil and its specs are an excellent subject for circle-jerking in online forums. We don’t do that in this episode. Rather, David covers the ins and outs of growing weed in soil, and gives some non-preachy insight on how he does it.

• What should you watch-out for when you grow weed in soil?
• Soil = Bugs. How to deal.
