its is good but IMO its spendy for the small anount u get, i use black gold coco mix with perlite, and it works great theirs no nutes in it,its easy to control ph, less watering, also i got like ten times the amount of soil for half the price of foxfarms

I think that it is the best and if u buy ask for feed chart fox farms is what i use the soil and the nutes,the nutes i just use big bloom and in flower i add tiger bloom and just feed every other water or so and i have great luck with it,So in my opinion fox farm's is the best on market right now and i have 18+ years behind me,good luck bro!!!!!!

also i noticed that usin the ff nutes the plants tend to yellow out earlier in flower just my expeirence though, ff is great for beginers, but im tryin to move away from it now that i know a lot more

Mix the FF ocean forest 1/2 w/ perlite and it will go a lot further for you

i never had a prob with build up, also adding the perlite helps to cuz it holds to much moisture, thats why i add the perlite, also the coco, and the perlite make make it easy to flush and control the nutes, and its all organic i really like it, im not sayin fox farm isnt good though, and yes the nutes are cheap, but dam howd u get 3 grows out of 1 bottle of bigbloom, i didnt even bother buyin that one cuz u have to use so much, somthin like 3-4 tablespoons a gal thats a waste, im usin some floranova for bloom and its about the same price and u get alot more cuz its super concentraited, :bigjoint:
