If yer totally new ta growing I'd go with Fox Farm ocean forrest,or their Happy Frog (it's alil cheaper),but I would add/mix 30% pelite to it so it will drain better. This soil is very stable and is very forgiving to newbe mistakes. It's jus full of all kinds of micro critters too! One of the reasons it is so forgivable... Good luck! BC
I've been mixing about 50-50 FFOF with Black Gold All Organic, a tablespoon of dolomite lime per gallon, and a teaspoon of Age Old myco per gallon, and getting great results.
Plus, the Black Gold doesn't burn seedlings like the FFOF does.
Here's some Satori I vegged and just started flowering in this mix, and they're doing great.
Interesting about FFOF burning seedlings. I've started around 20 seeds in FFOF and none of them burned. Surely the bags of FFOF vary a bit and it's, of course, different from strain to strain.
