He was on Heavy T's grow show 2 weeks ago. You might go and check out the pod cast. His soils sound kick ass. We are in the midwest and im try to get my store to bring it in. I believe--if my one brain cell still serves me---the Victory is the ferrarri of coco based mediums and it has 33 nutrients and all the bennies in it and needs no feeding of nutes. The Empire is cellulose based like ocean forest and some others-- and you can feed nutrients. He said they are necessarily able to service all the dealers requesting their prducts due to the fact their worms can only produce so much waste---and the size of the production facility.

Have used buckaroo EWC and dutchmans coco coir. So far (4 runs) both are working excellent and top notch products. Have heard lots of good reviews on the Empire Builder and one bad experience. Empire builder was too hot for one strain..

Is their soil worth it? I'd like to use their victory as a base and make a super soil. I cant find canna terra professional soil no wheres,and was thinking of using the victory insteads.

Their worm castings are great

I've read other places about people having problems with their soil being inconsistent

I believe all their products are clean green certified

I have been using their empire builder for about a year now at least. At least 8 pallets worth.

The key is to not feed it calmag for a month. Otherwise, works well for me.

Their empire mix seems expensive. How much is it per bag ?

 

[noone88]

I believe it's approximately $23-24 per bag and 2 cubic feet per bag.
