Soil Requirements

Indoor Planting:

  • Recommended: 8-10 liters of Soil per 100 watts of light, per plant, for water-only cycles.
  • Calculation Formula: (Light Wattage / Number of Plants / 100 watts) x 8-10 liters.
  • Example for One Plant: 600 watts / 1 plant = 600 watts / 100 watts x 10 liters = 60 liters.
  • Example for Multiple Small Plants: 1000 watts / 4 plants = 250 watts / 100 watts x 8 liters = 20 liters per plant.

Outdoor or Greenhouse Planting:

  • Recommended: 8-10 liters per plant, per week of growth.
  • Calculation Formula: Weeks of Growth x 8-10 liters x Number of Plants.
  • Example: 16 weeks x 8 liters x 1 plant = 128 liters.

General Recommendations:

  • Adequate soil ensures sufficient root space and nutrition throughout the crop cycle.
  • The calculation is ideal for well-lit gardens with ample airflow and space.
  • Smaller setups with less light or limited space may require less soil.
  • Our soil contains all necessary fertilizers, but less soil may require additional top dressings, liquid boosters, or compost tea.
  • Optimal soil for a 10-week cycle (2 Weeks Growth / 8 Weeks Flower) is between 80-100 liters. A 24-gallon grow pot is ideal.
