Just picked this up to try for an outside grow, Wanted to get the Ocean soil stuff from Fox Farm but this is all they had. Just wandering if this is good stuff or not?
it works well, a bit too much peat for my liking, thats why i prefer roots, but i've used happy frog once when they were out of roots and the happy frog performed fine, no problems with ph or salt buildup.
You can add either perlite, lava rock, sand to aerate it.
I like sand, but i seem to be in the minority.
I prefer Happy Frog over the Ocean Forest/Light Warrior mix as my base soils. OF/LW caused had caused enough mutations to my plants. Also, I am beginning to notice that perlite ~20% is wasted space in Happy Frog soil and it's not really needed -it dries too fast even in my 5 gallon buckets. And the less peet moss the better.
