Really? I hope this isn't a stupid question, but why is that? Soil temperatures?
If this is in reference to the small containers then yes.
The roots have no need for carbon dioxide (cO2). Respiration gives off heat, and it also requires a minimum temperature to start and continue; if the temperature gets too high, the reactions go haywire. If that happens, the roots will take in water but then they will do their best to retain it and so the process of transpiration (which provides water to the whole of the plant and cools it) will be disrupted. Instead, the roots transfer the excess heat generated from respiration (latent heat) to the surrounding medium. Dense mediums such as soil, sand, and even water, have a large temperature buffer which means that the temperature fluctuations over 24 hours will be minimal under normal conditions.

but I've always heard bad things about using miracle grow for your plants.
It can be, I am extremally biased though. The salt content in the miracle grow makes water unavailable to the plant and kills the micro-biology. But I have seen lots of people many different times use miracle grow with no problems except for the final product that does not taste good.
Thanks for all of your expert advice! You definitely deserve a follow, and I can't wait to see what all I can learn from you!
Well, I appreciate your kind words and thank you for the follow! Just know I have made more mistakes than not. Hopefully, we learn from each other!
Yes, that was in reference to the small containers, and thank you for that amazing information! The soil would get hot to the touch, and I was wondering if the small sizes of my containers (and especially the black coffee canister containers) we're absorbing too much heat! Thanks to your help, I now know this is true!
Honestly, even though this is my first grow, I'm extremely biased towards using miracle grow with cannabis as well, but I started researching and trying to learn the ins and outs of growing for about 10 years. I originally wanted to build my own box and start growing when I got out of highschool, but unfortunately, I never got that started!
And personally, taste is everything when it comes to cannabis! So I'm definitely going to be avoiding it all costs!
In your opinion, do you think that Plant 5 could recover after a transplant into better substrate?
Hey, we all make mistakes! The most important process is learning from those mistakes! And I am very fortunate to have found the Weedcash Network Community to help me learn! I know I've already learned quite a bit these last few weeks, but I hope I can continue to learn a lot from everyone here! :)
You know this school I always wanted to take but wasnt available until recently online. I learned a lot of really key stuff with this school's foundation courses.

If you can watch each video/lecture 3-4 times that corresponds to each lesson (63) than you should pass this no problem. In my opinion this is very well worth the money!
