Fox Farm /Ocean Forest
Starting my 4th grow with it. There is a small amount of nute burn to the young plants but they go thru it and do very well.

This is a re-post from Moonshine Man on a different forum:

(bag of each)
Ocean Forest
Planting Mix (guano/castings)
Light Warrior
Black Gold
Coco Brick(small brick)
1 cup peace of mind (for flower)
2- 5 gal buckets worth of perilite....
And the LARGE Chunky Perilite...RULES....small perilite packs down over time ...the large perilite creates huge air pockets for the roots to grow through....over the last 3 yrs anytime I have gone back to the small diameter perilite my plants SUFFER and yeilds diminish.....You have to try the stuff to understand and even then you may not comprehend (like me) the benefits the large core peri makes.....great stuff....
Romulator has been usin my mix for a couple of yrs now and he is like me always tinkering and tweakin the mix...but in the end its the core 3 bag fox farm mix that makes this shit work....
my only "additives" Id tell anyone to try would be "Fish Mix" from biobizz for a lil boost in veg and Advanced Nutes "Moter Earth Super Tea" for a lil boost on day 25-30 for LARGE plants ......But honestly the mix dont need nuthin....
This mix will be a little hot, but the results I've seen posted are great, and used ONLY R/O water...everything else is in the soil.
It'll do the trick for beginners, but as you develop as a grower, I recommend creating your own mixes with homemade compost, worm castings, natural supplements, etc.

I might try that sometime and compare vs PureBlend Pro Soil + Worm casting tea in promix. I've heard the subcool soil mix is crazy good but never tried myself.
