the difference in flowering times is kindergarten stuff as far as growing goes, how are you going to laugh and slam the op for not using the search function when its obvious you dont have the concept either.

kinda an asshole dude, I had to look this up.Questions like this really make me wonder if there is anything left of our education system at all.
Please tell me this is a troll post to make a fool like me respond. Please tell me this is all a joke and I will wake up in my bed next to a super model who is giving me head.
Please tell me you are blind and had your 4 year old daughter type this for you.
I can't believe I'm actually going to try to answer your question. What worries me is this............. Will you understand it?
So....you want to know how many one gallon pots will get filled by a 1.5 cubic foot bag of FF Ocean Forest.
What gets me is that you know the bag is 1.5 cubic feet. The next part I'm going to type confuses me immensely.
How do you know that the bag has 1.5 cubic feet of soil in it?
WAIT!! Don't answer that.
This one is better...........
What would you think is easier?
1) Popping a ripe pimple in the middle of your back
2) Throwing a party and getting all the Playboy Bunnies to come
3) Googling cubic feet to gallon conversion
4) Picking your nose and eating the booger
BUT WAIT!! Don't answer that easy one either. Let's go back to my first question. How do you know the bag has 1.5 cubic feet of soil in it?
Is it because:
A) the cat told you
B) You looked at the bag
C) you gently massaged the bag and knew it had that amount in it
If your answer was A, I completely understand. Don't worry, you will get better. If the answer was C, you need help.
If the answer was B, you better get glasses. Because if you looked at the bag you would have seen........................ right next to where it says 1.5 cubic feet..................... in parenthesis............................. it says 38.6 dry quarts AND, just in case you are from Europe, right underneath where it says 1.5 cubic feet and 38.6 dry quarts, is more writing that says 42.5 litres.
So what can we now assume from all this wonderful writing and speculation? ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY NOTHING!!
Why? Cause it still doesn't give you gallons!! And you asked about gallons!! So we still can't answer your question. WTF?!?!
All this great information and nothing. I don't understand it.
So this is what I did. I went to my daughter.............. she's in third grade, and asked her how many quarts was in a gallon. She said to me......... with a big proud smile on her face, "Daddy I know that one. One second daddy let me figure it out. Okay....you let me drink a big soda tonight and that was 16 whole ounces. 16 whole ounces is a pint...right daddy?
I told her she was right and she continued. "Ok daddy now I have to add pints together. Two pints make a quart...... am I right daddy? I said she was doing great!!
She smiled a big bright smile and looked at me with those shining blue eyes and I knew everything was all right with the world. Then she told me that 4 quarts were in one gallon and jumped into my arms waiting for her bear hug because she knew the answer and was so happy.
So this is what I will do for you. Instead of giving you a direct answer I wrote you a story. It took me a while but I felt it needed to be said.
I gave you a few hints along the way and I hope you can interpret them. Good luck with this. Once you find our answer run and give someone a big hug because I know once you find out you will be very happy.
I fig about 7 gallons per cubic foot.
I would go bigger pots. Just a few dollars more could get you an ounce more.
use at least 3 gallons. you can buy cheper dirt at home depot. Kellogs organic in the back. 8 dollars for 3 cubic feet. Same price for compost.
head to the organic section and make your own mix. Not bad.
I got lr2 right now in 3 gallons going. I here 7 gallon lr2 gets you ounces.

Did I slam anyone? No. I just comment on how I thought his response was funny.
Just crucify me now. God Forbid.
Give it a rest. Pick a fight with someone else. the guy got his answer and some humor was thrown in. You didn't think it was funny but I did. Oh well, life goes on.

fdd, you neither frighten me nor anger me. Do what you have to do grandpa because you need a wake up call. What you call "mocking and belittling" others call "cute or funny.mad at you? not the slightest. you've shown yourself in a negative manner. as a mod, my opinion matters. be forewarned.
What's up with you lately? Let's call a spade a spade shall we? Who came into this thread looking for some action? YOU sir.
Who could have closed this thread a VERY long time ago instead of doing some mocking and belittling of his own? YOU sir
Who could have stopped it before threats were spewed forth from one's fingertips? YOU sir.
Maybe YOU need to see words in a different and lighter mood. Because if you did maybe you would have seen that I gave him an answer in four different ways.
People need to lighten up a little bit here. Where some see joy a few others see argument and strife. WTF is up with that?
This will be my last post in this thread. Thx

i came into this thread because i wanted to know the answer. i left it open because i didn't want to be accused of throwing around my powers. by the time i got here it was already said and done. so you are incorrect in your assumption, SIR.
your post was rude.

i wonder how his plants ever made out..... hahaha what a day following this thread
did i use 3 bags or 4? dang it, i can't remember. i mix in about 30 - 40% perlite so it throws the #'s way off. i mix about 6 or 7 gallons at a time. i have a big plastic bin i mix in. i think it takes 3 mixing to empty one bag. but how many pots am i filling. 18 - 21? i could be waaaaaay off. all this pot is messin' with my math.
i have seen a trend towards sarcasm and a general air of rudeness clouding the forums in the past two weeks. it is creeping in like fog. we are in a very important time in history right now. the whole world has it's eyes on us "stoners". we should be doing our best to set a good example. IMO.

I like to cut my Ocean Forest with Fox Farm Light Warrior. Its great for drainage and root development. I use a 2:1 ratio, that is 2 parts Ocean Forest for every 1 part Light Warrior.
Not to interrupt the battle here, just thought I would offer some positive posting!

I havent been around here very long but its true and I am guilty of it. The mood is shifting and the people with real insight are going to post less and less if it continues.
Sorry for the "cheerleading", I thought the post was very well thought out and made me laugh my ass off. I think you should be able to poke fun at people that dont do a least a little research before posting.
You are right though, this is the web sight I chose before I started growing because I saw all the comradery and encouragement that the people around here had. It really was the final push that made me start growing. Nothing but encouragement from me from now on
Sorry if it offended you AIC
