Get the HP as it's chock full of perlite and grows great right out of the bale once you add nutrients as it has none of it's own just like the BX. Myco does not feed a plant.

ProMix products don't really need more lime. They come with dolomitic and calcitic lime in sufficient quantities. HP doesn't need more perlite tho the BX probably does. I've used the HP with AN nutes for the last 10 years or so since it became available in our area. Been using Mega Crop nutes the last two grows and that works very well too. RO or distilled water only for my girls. pH 5.5 - 6 should work great tho with AN nutes you never need to check pH.

Agreed HP pro mix hands down some of the best potting soil mass produced and the same everywhereProMix products don't really need more lime.

Are you using bx? I used a smaller (black and orange) bag of promix once when the shop was out of pm bx, damn that stuff that came in the black bag was horrible. Too much peat moss i think.

I like bx for the summer outdoor plants to holds more water,Hp for the winter indoor runs. i have seen the bags an the half bales not the same as the 3.8 bales. the 3.8 HP are 1/3 perlite.

Yes i know and its great.
potting soil, like the term soilless is simply a catch all term...it means very little, since coco and coco peat and peat are all considered by technical definition soil..potting soil is a media full of organic materials used to grow plants...
