I need your opinions on this soil. I just got 10 bags and someone said something about that soil having bugs.
Roots is by far the biggest seller at our store. I will say that I have heard people complain of fungus nats a couple times, but when were selling 200+ bags a week and only a handful have had an issue it's hard for me to think roots is the cause. Even if they are the chances of having that issue, seem to be extremely low.

Im actually mixing the soil today I dont have azamite though cant find it. I had gnats once and just watered less often and they went away but I run co2 also and pretty much anything that flies or crawls dies except mites.

Every time I use Roots Organic, I have fungus gnats. When I use soilless mixes, I don't.

I'm not trying to dispute what you've seen; just trying to tell what I've seen.

I still LOVE Roots Organic; I just have to use Diametrius Earth powder to kill their larvae. Problem solved.

I hear you, but of course your having more fungus gnats with Roots compared to soilless mixes. Your not working with shit....

Ill mix a little great white with the water that im going to spray but I always add it after transplant because some of that stuff has to have root structure to grow on. Great white has a ton of beneficials in it. I was growing in cow shit bx mix indoors last year and magic mushrooms started popping up.

Michigan Made Mix is selling very very well. Most people are getting great results with it too, but some people that do long veg periods tend to get Ca deficiency in the middle of flower. We do not carry those...

Top 5 Soils:
1. Roots Original
2.Ocean Forrest
3. Roots 707
4. Michigan Made Mix
5. Happy Frog

Fuck canna! People want to talk shit about Advanced distribution, but the way they operate with only allowing one shop to stock their stuff in a 20sqmile area is leading to a lot of hype based information. These stores that get to stock it, rave about it because of this arrangement, leading to consumers getting led down a path in the thought process that Canna is be all end all of the industry.
