foxfarm's ocean forest. this is my first time growing with something other than miracle-gro so it's definitely a step up and worth the 25-30 bucks.

My last grow was with 100% Perlite and it was one of the best grows I've ever had!!

My current grow is in coco coir and its going very well also.

I use FF OF when doing soil

if u go with soil or any medium i guess, u got to make it ur own and always go organic, right now I'm workin with a coco blend with:worm castings, blood meal, bone meal, vermiculite, perlite, lime, and epson salts. but next time im gona do some dank ass guano blend, i don't know yet. but with the soil thing: find urself a good starter like pro-mix or sunshine mix then make it ur own and experemint cause thats what its all about

What do you guys think about vigoro? its a 13-13-13 ratio its an organic fert you can get home-depot

It depends on what you have at your disposal. I have stuff here that they putt through a process that is more complex than microbrewing beer...stuffs amazing(Solid Gold). But if you dont have these you can make a good mixture and then that would matter on how much you need to make for how many plants...if these questions are answered i can help yah.

Scotts premium potting mix, perlite, lime

I think maybe most here cant get there hands on things like FF or some of the popular type of materials that some of the growers use (or maybe most! who cares), anyways, like you said whatever is at your disposal.

I think I might go try some of this vigoro if some more discoloring continues on my clone (not trying to steal thread sorry), its a low ratio and organic so why not a shot.
