I know, I was like, DAMN!

No, it's gardener's choice, from Wally World. It's got very small amounts of nutes in it, compared to what you get in miracle grow.
Thats cool. We always knock MG grow but when I started I used it a lot. I would put that osmocote soil in the bottom 1/4 of the pot and MG seed starting soil on the top 3/4. I never had to add any nutes just watered and I got fine results.

Then I found overgrow.com and got in with the Pro-Mix craze that was going on. Now it seems like the hype is with Fox-Farm mixes but that Ocean Forest is really hot especially for an organic mix. Ok babbling highness:eyesmoke:

Oh I almost forgot good work stoney looks great!

Thanks, man.And it's proof you don't have to have expensive soil to grow a good plant.

Yeah but some soil really is crap:cuss: I can't find good soil in this town for the life of me, I might have to go with MG shhhh don't tell anyone.;-)

I found this stuff that seemed decent called "Sheep and peat". I think the sheep manure is poorly decomposed it has Ph hot spots all through it and it is obvious when the roots start growing into one of them.

I still like to keep my mothers in soil its just simpler.
