fox farm ocean forest

[michaelpeg]

I was wondering if anyone knows a good place where a canadian can buy fox farm ocean forest without paying a crazy amount. I purchased the ferts from Bustan - Toronto Hydroponics Grow Lights Nutrients Hydroponic Supplies Canada (http://www.bustan.ca) for very reasonable price and as far as i know they dont have the soil. please help

sorry dude, that stuff is expensive to get anywhere and it's hard to find an actual store that carries it, and if they do its $$. Even online, the soil might be cheap but then it's $20 to ship it. So unless you have a place that sells it where you're at, you're looking at buying it online....
Even on their web site the US is the only place you can search for distributors...

i kind of find it rediculous to pay $20.00 for a bag of dirt. you can buy some cheap soil and add your ferts for a cheaper price for more dirt....you could also do this all organically for cheaper than $20.00 for one bag of dirt:twocents:

anyine know of another good soil besides foxfarm?

[keeko]

you might have to check out some nurseries near your area

Yeah you should check your local nurseries for dirt. Sometimes you could end up with stuff just as good for way cheaper. The mix i use is made at my local garden shop but it stays outside which means insects and things of that sort are usually in the soil. I got some kind of little roaches from this dirt and had to get a fogger after one of my grows. Since then i usually microwave the dirt or put it in the oven are though 10 mins in the microwave is enough to kill just about anything, including beneficial bacteria in the soil.

the soil i was using was shultx tropical mix: 0.08% nitrogen 0.10%phosphoric acid, 0.08% soluble potash with multicote slow release plant food. Do you guys think this would be too much for the little seedlings and nute burn them because i have been getting very poor results with this soil.
