I've heard that small plants in big pots isn't really all that great. Supposedly the moisture settles in the bottom quickly and the roots of small plants have a hard time reaching that far that quickly.
unfortunately i've asked the guy at the shop before if he carries fox farm and he doesn't. Actually the only growing medium he carries is Coco and worm castings. I've tried coco once and had too many issues with drying and ph control. Soil seems easier heh.

I've heard the same thing about putting small plants in large pots. If its absolutely essential i can buy some 1 galon pots and go from jiffy to 1 gal to 3 gal. Just means more chance for stress and more dirt....
cypher420 Reviewed by cypher420 on . Soil mix and general questions So I have only grown once before in regular potting soil and used regular liquid ferts and did NOT ph adjust any water (just used filtered water) and surprisingly got 3ozs off my blueberry, 2oz's off vanilla kush and 1.5 ounces off super lemon haze all from jiffy pot to 3gal to 5gal pot. Problem tho was my vanilla kush came out with an insane amount of seeds and my lemon haze turned hermie but not quite as many seeds but terrible taste and not strong. Blueberry thankfully smokes grrrrrreeaaatt Rating: 5
