i searched all day for fox farm trust me, what i picked up was the closest i could find. idk what you mean by cheep, the stuff wasnt that cheep.

idk why i would sprout in pure vermiculite, would i have to re-pot after a week if not 2? i get good results in soil only problem being the nutes burn durring week 2. so i got something with out nutes, and i have my own high quality nute plan.

next time i order online i will be buying fox farm. that wont be till i order my t5 lights, and that will be about the time i re-pot and go to flowering. i will be fine for vegin i hope.

and please dont call me cheep, i've spent over 400$ on this "hobby" and i havent yet even barly started......
californiaorang Reviewed by californiaorang on . round 4, this time im doing it right-soil i have been having a really hard time keeping seedlings alive, yellowing and brown drying leave tips eventualy leading to ultimate death of seedling. i realized it was my pre-furt soil. i had to hunt for a soil very mild and basic enough so that i could finaly use my hesi soil kit. full kit for all stages of growth. ok so i got some soil thats basicly peat moss and vermiculite with some other basic ingredients. its very light and fluffy. no nutes added, and its ph balanced i also got Rating: 5
