Been seeing all the hype around hydro and coco lately, and yeah they’re cool — but there’s something about a simple soil grow that just feels right. Running a mix of organic soil, perlite, worm castings and compost for my current girls. No bottled nutes, just teas and top-dressing when needed. They might not bulk up like some hydro setups, but they’re healthy, smell amazing, and I’m not chasing numbers anymore. Just enjoying the process and watching them thrive. Curious — any other dirt growers still out here keeping it old school? What’s your go-to mix or must-know tip?

Mate, couldn’t agree more that first sprout never loses its magic. It’s like a little reminder why we do it in the first place. For me, it’s a mix I love seeing them thrive naturally, but I won’t lie, chasing a chunky yield feels rewarding too. Guess it depends on the grow, sometimes I’m just happy watching ‘em do their thing.
