Is there a soil that is better than most or standard,I know one thing is that it should have some pearlite in it correct?
What are the pro's and cons of using Bat Guano?
First off I have not grown in soil but have done some reading on the subject so I may not be qualified to comment, but since no one else is commenting I will throw in my limited knowledge.
For most that grow in soil they buy a standard potting soil and amend it from there(adding things like bat guano, bone meal ect.), or they use concentrated organic nutrients to add to water for their feedings.
There is a search function near the top on the right hand side, I would recommend using the search function to search for soil building or another term you are looking to understand. Click the magnifying glass and a new window will open which will search the entire website and return results based on your search criteria.
DocBud, COorganic are members whom I see a lot of posts regarding soil grows, not that they are the only ones but they seem to have a lot of exposure on this site.
