Experienced grower here, looking for experienced opinions. Anyone out there using Roots Organic ORIGINAL for starting seeds? Is it too hot?

I just started a seed in a root riot cube in roots organic original about a week ago and haven't seen any issues. I also just ran 4 autos that started in roots organic and they all did well. I had problems with one plant out of the gate but I'm pretty sure it was a magnesium issue from it being my first all organic grow.

If you are worried about mixes being too hot for seedlings in general, just cut some of it 50/50 with perlite or vermiculite.

It's mega weak on nutrients. It's good for starting plants but you will need to add fertilizer otherwise.
