I am about to switch from ocean forest to either sunshine mix #4 or the #2 mix. The #2 seems to have little less perlite and there is not nutes added to it.
The questions I have are how often do you have to water with this soil compared to ocean forest? I was watering every 4-7 days depending on the stage of growth and temps with the ocean forest. I wouldn't mind watering like every 3 days at the most, but I don't want to have to water any more often than that.
The #4 mix is not set up for a daily watering or anything is it? If it drains and dries too fast I will be getting the #2 mix which has like 10-15% more peat in it.
If any one has used either the #4 or #2 mix, any tips or info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
