I was going woth "kind soil' its made near me and seemed very good.. It wants you to mix 1 lb of dirt per your gallon size, and rest with a mixture so that seedlinga arent directly in the super soil.

So it's even more than $95 after mixing? Seems like a lot. I can't argue that over time you won't appreciate the time you save without mixing ferts but I spend $100 every six months if that. I might like $95 for 60lbs, let's say...

Otherwise- I concur with some others here. That mix right off the bat might fry your seedlings. If you have something else to use until your roots are established, I'd look into that and the cheaper the better... Got any friends who can lend you a cup of sugar (read: coco;lighter ec soil mix?)

If it has a buffer on top such as roots mix wouldn't it not be as "hot"? Its 1lb SS per gallon container, rest is filler buffer on top

Nothing wrong with regular soil if you feed.

It's worked for 1000's of years so don't overthink this or get caught up into hype soil brands.

its nothing to do with soil "brands" seeing as the ":brand": I want is not very well known.

Got any friends who can lend you a cup of sugar (read: coco;lighter ec soil mix?) __________________ It's time for a revolution, but probably not in the terms that people imagine it. The word conjures up images of— a modern day version of peasants going into the street with their pitch forks to go after the bad guy who lives in a big house and we're gonna get that son-of-a-bitch and we'll take all the stuff from him and we'll give it to the workers. That's not the kind of revolution I had in mind. I thought that it might be nice if it was handled a little bit more modern and efficient way, without people getting slaughtered. It's a matter of infiltration…The people who are in control of the media, the government that run the lives of the average person in the street. They aren't doing a good job 'cause they don't really care. The potential is there in the younger generation. Right now they’re not really interested. Their political involvement is on a very superficial basis. They go out for the social aspects of a march or a rally rather than for what it could possibly accomplish. -FZ
