I use foxfarm to start my seedlings every time. Where did ya read that it may kill seedlings?

i just start seedlings in rockwool in a controlled space in my veg cabinet..then i just transplant to mg potting soil.... no problems...

i have never heard that ocean forest was bad in any way shape or form.

i read on some forums that the ocean forest will burn seedlings cause its high in N maybe i misread it so just strait ocean forest will be good then?

Sure thats what i use. Just fill the holes up with foxfarm and plant. If ya had a shop light that would be better for them, less heat, and so forth.
