I can vouch for the customer service of Miller Soil which for me being in the customer service industry is huge! Top notch customer service is how companies not only survive, but thrive! Here is a email I got from Red today.

We just got the soil results back from the lab on Monday. It looks like the blender put in too much gypsum. The soil will be reblended this Friday. I would be very disappointed if we sent you a mix that had excessively high sulfur levels because of the gypsum mess. The new soil blend can ship on Monday and be to you by Wednesday at the latest.
We are more than happy to compensate you for your cooperation. We will give you an extra yard at no cost if you are willing to wait the extra two days to get the right soil delivered for your grow. Customer service is of the utmost importance and we don't want you to get stuck with a bad mix from a blending error.
Thanks for your consideration. - RED

I have some of Red's outdoor and its a slow starter??? anyone........
We've been in the reds for two weeks & we've seen a couple notable things we wanted to share. First off their is not enough of a wetting agent mixed in so when you water you've got to mix in some Wet Betty with it or the water just runs through the pot without wetting the mix. What moisture we do have in the soil is now producing some fungus gnats which is very disturbing. Plants are happy for the most part but need food on the next watering. Some yellowing on the lowers.

Update, My outdoor with Reds is now Rocking!!! Had some of the wetting problems but we got throw it. We just water and mixed in a baby pool and did one plant at a time. This work very well! No more problems. We have added compost tea every other week and things are green and growing tail.(maybe to tail)

Are the fungus from the soil or the environment?

Trout is code word for I"m a damn yankee & don't know jack shit about real fishing. In all fairness (yea, right), trout is good bait for Texas minnows & ignorant-ass yankees. If you fish with me, you need 3 five gal. buckets, what you call "Corks", ski rope or parachute line (fishing line) & either whole turkey or chicken for bait, depending on the season. Pork chittlin's & game warden parts work well at full moon... taste just like mullet. It's called Cat fishing. The corks keep the boat from being pulled under... seriously folks. An 80 lb. yellow cat ain't nuttin to play around with. Best Gator bait, other than my Ex is yankee water skiers.
Nice commentary. LMAO. A perfect example of why I live in Montana and never drive further south than Salt Lake City. We never water ski up here, just snow ski. That rules out Texans. If God wanted Texans to ski he would have made bullshit white.

I'm working on my web skills...... can you tell? Any way, Thing's look great in the grow. watering every 3 or 4 days, 2 gallons per plant. Nut's every 2 weeks and @ %40 from before Millers. I know we save money on this round. Lets see the finished weight.......

great info. we're dumping FFOF and Happy Frog after this grow is done. our last of the year. starting off next spring with our own "dirt" that we concocted ourselves using the great info here. we've not be unhappy with our results or anything, but try to stay as organic as possible. using alpaca poop, bat guano, molasses but no chemical based nutrients like fox farm trio etc. All our plants look fantastic and produce what we need but our vegetable garden is all organic so our grows should be also. Been growing our own since 1975 and still learning.
