Fox Farm's Ocean is awesome...I like their Happy Frog as well, but it seems that soil dries out a little quicker. Still good. I have eight growing in ocean and six growing in frog as I type this. All are doing very well.

I use cheap Shultz soil from Walmart and it seems pretty good. I should have added a little pearlite cause the soil gets pretty solid.

ROOTS ORGANICS. It is as plug and play as it gets. i can pull 3-4 oz off a 36'' no effing problem with just whats in the bag. Never mind the simple liquid guanos added weeks 4-7 of flowering. It comes in a 25lb bag which is enough to sustain even the longest outdoor grows. Out doors simply cut open the bag, plant, and water. Indoors go one gallon of soild per month of growth. It is hands down the best organics soil in a bag. With literally every micro amd macro nutrint and loads of other stuff too. The best about orgaincs is there is 1000% more nutrients in the soil than the plants needs. However in orgainc soil the plant has the ability to pick and choose when and how much it would like to take. Instead of soils which need supplementing, or harsh chemical fertilizers. You wont be dissappointed!!! I hope this helps!


Peace,

I've been using Sunshine Mix #4. 3.8 cubic feet goes for $30 local and I add 2 bags of perlite for every 3.8 cubic feet bag. I would like to try Fox Farm though.

i bet a lot of people will say FFOF but here's my mix.

- (1)16 quart bag of Jiffy7 Seed Starting Mix
- (1)8 quart bag of Ace Potting Soil (no time release nutes)
- (1)8 quart bag of MG Perlite
- (1)8 quart Brick of Coco

I've been using this mix since i got done with my first bag of MG Organic (kinda hated it). Works great, even my mom uses this mix for her flowers/herbs/vegetables
