It always good to try different media to grow in but I think the both of those bags mixed will be fine it drains really well in the trail I set up cheers for the heads upYou don't want fox farm .
It sucks now, they changed formulas. I'm sure there are regional soil companies down under, find something local
Thanks for saying it for me! My own preferred is Gardener & Bloom Blue Ribbon potting soil. Best I've found and easily half the price of FF.You don't want fox farm .

Well alas I was denied the Okey dokey to bring in Fox farm in to grow in stupid red tape so I've done a little homework and have come up with a pretty good combo I'd really love to try the FF but hey I'll give this stuff a go .
sea do you have any pics of this soil, and or some pics of plants run in this, I'm in so cal what location do you aquire this blue ribbon you speak of? ThanksThanks for saying it for me! My own preferred is Gardener & Bloom Blue Ribbon potting soil. Best I've found and easily half the price of FF.
Awesome it's Kellogg so I'm sure I can order it at my garden center, thanks sea much appreciatedOh man, I was buying it from my local garden center up north. Now we're in the Mojave and I haven't found any garden centers, nor am I running anything in soil that I can't bring in the house or the catio. I'll have to do some searching for you, but in the meantime here's a link so you know what to look for.
Also, OMRI listed with restrictions.
I havnt seen any problem with the bags I bought I did give it a good flush before I set up the plants and keeping the nutes down to 250 ppm seems to be good level I'm happy with the roots and the progress so far .And I am sorry to agree that the 4 month feed soil is going to be unpredictable and maybe too hot with no way to wash out the nutes.
Just need a regular 1-4 week amended potting mix with good drainage and a slightly acidic ph. No long term slow release fertilizer added.
But I have seen gardeners make all kinds of stuff work :)

Oh yes I totally understand and cheers for the heads up I'll keep a good check on it . These bags have the lower end of the slow realease compared to the top end I just got these cause it's has cal and MAG in them so I can use little on no nutes .Looks great. The problem usually surfaces about half way through flowering when they are drinking a lot. When the slow release nutes are still available and they keep getting activated by watering and the plant doesn't need so much.
But that plant looks fantastic. Good luck. I was just sharing a caution I have seen and read.
