killer set up bro!
can you recommend a fertilizer program for ocean forest soil? i'm open to organic or inorgranic....
I have uploaded the Fox Farm Feeding Sceduals in PDF for both Hydro & Soil. They Reccomend (of course) using Fox Farm Ocean Forest Medium for the Soil Chart.

Hey bro, i'd recommend using the foxfarm array with a couple additives after about 3 months of heavy research i have come up with this opinion of the most bang for the buck.

What you need
Fox farm cha-ching
Fox farm beastie bloomz
fox farm open sesame
Superthrive
Advanced Nutrients Scorpion juice
Bud Candy (optional)
Grandmas Unsulph molasses

Advanced Nutrients Scorpion Juice-

You want to water once a week with scorpion juice it greatly increases your rate for 100% success, it builds up the plants immune system so virus and other stress don't impact it, some grade A stuff.

Superthrive-
A lot of people on here use it im just using the stuff its a natural hormone and vitamine for your plant that from what many studies show can double your growth, i use it about every other watering and never mix on nute day i always use it on a water day. It's about 1 drop per gallon it comes with a medicine dropper.

Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy - Aroma and flavor enhancer you want to use this in your flower cycle after the second week and until your last two weeks.

Grandmas molasses - About once a week 1 TBS per gallon helps with sugar production (i only use it during flowering)

You're foxfarm array you can follow their schedule for it some strains run longer than others so you may have to tweak it so that your not adding final flowering components before your ready, or in lame mens terms jumping the gun.

You're last two weeks of flowering are really upto you i've read some people use bud candy all the way to the end but there is no absolute way to flush soil but their are ways to deplete out some of the salts and really increase your resin and sugar production quick. I normally double dose on grandmas for the last two weeks and thats all i give them no more nutrients at this point your soil should have more than enough nutrients in it too finish the last two weeks.

You're next thing is your soil mix, i highly recommend LC's mix #2 it's a little pricey but we are talking about the most important part of the grow. I use 9 5 gallon buckets so thats about 6 cupic feet of dirt using LC's mix it breaks down too -

3.6 Cupic Feet Fox farm ocean forest (2 big bags and 1 or 2 small bags)
1.2 Cupic Feet Earthworm casting (the whole 30lb bag was what i used for mine)
1.2 Cupic Feet Chunky Perlite
* Get pulverized dolomite lime * Add about 1 US Cup per cupic foot so I add 6 cups for my mix.

Mix your shit up real nice in a kid pool or a garbage can with a trash line obviously and let it sit for two weeks this is known as "composting" it gets your soil jump started.

Hope this helps or i just wasted 10 minutes of my time and burnt my fingers 3 times on the joint typing it.
