My first grow was with Miracle Grow, I used very little ferts for that grow (bag seed) and I got some decent mid grade with about 2 ounces of yeild. Every other grow since then, even basil and jalapenos have been plagued by millipedes and fruit flys. Granted, really the only places to buy anything out here is Walmart and lowes. I have since switched to FF ocean forest and things are just way easier. Oh, and also, MG gave a very weird taste to the pot that FF doesnt.
