the reason i wanted foxfarm so bad is because i had a bad soil that was very high in nitrogen and had slow release plant food that is supposed to last 9 months and this burnt the crap out of my seedlings. this was the first soil i ever used so i just assumed all soil was crap except for foxfarm. I am now using 1 part perlite 1 part vercumlite and 2 parts seedling soil and it seems to be working just fine
