High horse. You're on one.You obviously have no concept of what I was trying to get across in my first post and that's just sad.
Maybe you want to stick to the topic at hand and make your diatribe in a top level post?

And this post is sticking to the topic at hand?
I already made my suggestion to the OP
i would say find a good local garden center and get the ingredients and get the best shit they have, or ideally buy the shit for subcools mix. https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/44686-subcools-super-soil.html?highlight=subcool+soil

sorry to hijack this thread but i was reading on pg 2 about the guy claiming home depot is evil and just couldnt not say anything. He claims that they promote sweatshops and globalization. It is impossible to do that, sweatshops are exploiting disadvantaged areas. Globalization is an equaling of societies all around the world b/c they begin to share so much and become more alike. So if home depot was for using sweatshops then them speeding up globalization would actually hurt themselves.

Reading Comprehension > You. See post #47 for why I suggested he take his diatribe elsewhere. I'm not sure why you're getting pissy but I'll no longer reply to this issue. Feel free to take the internet kool kid attitude elsewhere.And this post is sticking to the topic at hand?

I made my suggestion too, MG seed starting mix because it's 5-1-5. I theorize that people burn their plants and get the claw so often with MG because the regular soils are 21-7-14.

Well put - Brake the Chains shop local!! I been using Fox Farm OF and love it for my girlsWell I don't wanna go on a whole diatribe and hijack the poor man's thread. After all, it is for a noble cause
However, there are many serious problems with these big box stores. Basically, in their quest to offer the lowest possible prices, they gut and destroy local economies, putting locally owned family stores out of business and essentially laying waste to downtowns across america. They also hasten globalization and promote sweatshop labor because of the way in which they relate to their suppliers. Why do you think walmart is so much cheaper than anyone else? It' because they have so much clout n the retail world, so much market share and buying power, that they can just muscle their way around among suppliers and wholesalers and force them to sell at ridiculously low prices. For example, the rubbermaid plant in Wooster Ohio, which had been the main employer in the town and the center of community life, was famously forced to shut down and offshore or outsource to china because of walmart's threats to cease relations with them unless the slashed their prices to a ridiculous extent.
Additionally, because of the way walmart treats and underpays its employees, American taxpayers currently pay more more towards welfare and medicaid programs to support these impoverished mistreated workers than the amount they collectively save by shopping at Walmarts. These are somewhat difficult computations and I'd have to quite a bit of back-research to source these quotes, but rest assured they are attributable to a reputable source.
Check out the great documentary film Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price. It will make you think twice about your choice to shop at walmart.
Although walmart has become the poster child for this kind of irresponsible retail strategy, and a target for much consumer ire and vitriol, the other box stores you mentioned are not much better, and engage in many of the same nefarious and avaricious practices.
Hey, you asked, so that's just a run down. Let me say, I have had to go to walmart once in my quest for grow supplies, but it was only because I had absolutely no other choice. And why did I have no other choice? Because the introduction of walmart in my area has forced my local hardware store to stop carrying items and product lines which they can't hope to sell at a price competitive with that of walmart. Believe me, it's worth spend a few extra bucks to maintain your freedom from these 'free' market bohemoths.
Thanks for reading, and "have a nice day' kiss-ass

Whoever left mrblanco a negative rep he is really upset guys. I got a pm from him saying this: "Thanks for the negative rep without even having the balls to leave your name. Feel free to go fuck yourself."
I don't have the power to leave negative reputation so whoever left it please tell him so that we can all laugh at him for caring enough to say something to me

I don't really care about people leaving neg reps
But if you pm me calling me a coward for negative repping him when I can't do it... that's annoying
The little boy didn't even have the balls to say anything back to me when I told him to man up and apologize
Where ya at mr blanco?

I'm sorry, I have a life and don't live on an internet forum like some of you.
I don't give a fuck about the negative rep. Have the balls to leave your name. Reading Comprehension > You.
I really like the maturity of posting a private message publicly and making a big drama whore spectacle out of it. And you have the balls to call me a crybaby? The absolutely hilarious irony!
I will not further indulge this nonsense.

Once spoiled by the good stuff, you will never go back.
But, if you HAD to go with their stuff, I'd say make salad--top soil, sand, vermiculite, perilite, dash of peat moss here and there, ETC.
