I dont use any newts on seedlings in
fox farm soil and my next run imma try
fox farm with no newts see how long its last till I have to add some
I can't imagine you having idle hands that way. I think soilless with GH Flora 3-part (total control of what the plant is getting) would be more fun for you.
But, it's good to try different things.
If you go with
fox farm, add perlite. (I'd say 50%). But, I'm less of a fortified soil person, more of a feed everything each watering. Maybe having more perlite with a rich soil isn't the right thing to do. You should look into that before doing it.
