Ya but mg isn't really geared towards the nutrient needs of what we grow. haha. That and I don't really trust a company that got sued for millions of dollars for putting toxic waste in their fertilizers and were able to get away with it for years as "proprietary information." But, yes on a budget it would (and has) work(ed kind of), but fox farms shouldn't cost more than $11 or you're paying too much. Mg organic costs $4 and comes with 1 cubic foot I believe; I may be wrong though. While foxfarms is 1.5 cubic feet so its really not that much more for something I've gotten good results with. To each his own I guess, its all preference and hearsay unless I got you all the lab results proving what I say.
