What's new

Anyone ever used Sunshine LC 8?

I have a bag of Sunshine LC 8 that I got from my local hydro store along with my FFOF which is almost gone. I have enough FFOF for 1 maybe 2, 5 gal pots. I need enough for 3 pots. I was thinking about mixing the Sunshine with the FFOF. I think I can get 3 5 gal pots with a 50/50 or 60/40 mix of FFOF/Sunshine. Should I just buy a new bag of FFOF and use it or should I mix FFOF and Sunshine and just use that?

Thanks

You can mix those in whatever ratio you want..I wouldn't run out and buy any more FFOF..Sunshine is better imo, but I'd go with a different mix if you are looking to be organic like the FF..

Sunshine growers Natural and Organic has been good to me..

Thanks for the advice bro. I thought it was organic? Except for maybe the wetting agent? Here's the ingredients:

70% - 80% Canadian Sphagnum
Coarse Grade Perlite
Coarse Grade Vermiculite
Dolomitic Limestone
Gypsum
Wetting Agent

Think I will just mix up the rest of my FFOF with this and just go with that.

when I read the label, i see..

Formulated with Canadian Sphagnum peat moss, coarse perlite & vermiculite, starter nutrient charge , dolomitic limestone and our long-lasting wetting agent.

starter nutrient charge, wetting agent are most likely not..

sounds exactly like pro mix..

Sun Growers natural and organic has the same, but different wording..

Canadian Sphagnum peat moss, coconut coir pith ,coarse perlite, coarse vermiculite, organic starter nutrient charge, Gypsum, dolomitic limestone and an organic wetting agent.

Says organic both before the nutrient charge and the wetting agent.

Hmmmm I don't see....starter nutrient charge....listed. Just what I have listed in my above post is all I see on the bag. Maybe it's mixed a little different in other areas.
