I truly like all the fox farm products. I use the big three “ nutes” later in each period of grow when I feel like available nutrients are used up in my soil unless I’m running straight OF soil, then I won’t use any nutes till flower usually. The more you can set your dirt up so you can just water and go the better off you are!!! Just my opinion.

Yeah man and I actually started out using all of the fox for nutrients because I just thought that’s what you needed but as time went on I just started amending the soil more so I didn’t have to worry about the bottle stuff. And I actually had better results that way as well.

[@jblaineee808]

I use the original fox farm soil pre mixed with bat guano and earthworm Castings and coco coir. For seedlings I start in the small cubic containers with 70% soil on the bottom and 30% coir on top. During the initial growth of your seedling it has all the nutrients it needs from the seed it’s growing from. So you don’t have to add any nutrients. By the time the roots start reaching the soil, leaves will have grown out and will start to use the nutrients from the soil.

[@420scene]

Def man, absolutely.

I mixed coco and Ocean forest 50/50 and cut down on recommended nutrients during veg. Now into 3rd week of flower and I have zero problems. Only problem in my growth thus far was due to my heater getting turned and burning on of my plants ( third week after seedling stage). I feel incredibly lucky up till now because I am a complete noob ( first ever grow) and not seeing any bugs or mildew and such. I keep my eye on PH and now that my plants are in bloom I feed nutrients at an increased level. Plants have realy taken off the first 10 days of 12/12 light cycle and they are looking fantastic. But still, with every day that goes by I have my fingers crossed that my luck continues. Other products that was available to me on short notice and budget wise which I use is calmag, organic molasses, Alaska fish fertilizer, worm casting and bat guano. I also added some epsom salt to the mix. My Acapulco Gold is either knock my sox off or it will kill me...Stay tuned!

I made my own compost this spring , I’ve got gsc extreme from ilgm . I took some clones off the best few plants . That compost was mixed with coco coir for 4 clones and the size of the buds on the clones are 2-4x the size of the seed . But the dispersement of the budding on the seeds is much higher and far more . I experimented this time since I haven’t grown in ten years . I trained the main branch and folded it down to help with size in the 5x5 tent . I mix kelp meal bat guano and another veg/fruiting dry mixture And sprinkled some epsom Salt for magnesium I wasn’t getting outta the nutrients .

[@MrJaxparadize]

To help rooting for clones, put neodymium around the base of the cutoff, use the square sponges, within a day or 2 the roots will be coming out of the cube. In 2 more days, it will outgrow the cup container (the roots). A strong root system will help the plant take more punishment and/or quick changes in the environment. This only applies to smaller plants, once the plant grows out the EM field, it will slow down. You can use a tomato cage and wrap it with magnets to create on giant emf around the plant. I’ve been experimenting with a copper twisted like a tornado. I run a low current enough to create an emf around the whole plant. This is not easy. You must know how much your plant will take before it frys. Remember to ground it in the dirt the plant is in. I can’t stress this enough, KNOW HOW MUCH CURRENT YOUR PLANT CAN TAKE! The grounding will put excess into the root system so it the current is too high... ☠️. If you decide to go this way, start with .25v without resistance or 0 oms. Go up from there. Be gentle! Don’t lose your babies! Tiger bloom rocks!

A lot of people in here with disagree, including myself only because in my experience Ocean Forest has been really hot. But yes I do agree that the soil works itself out after a few weeks but I think it’s a good soil to transplant into but not start off with.

[@420scene]

Everything I talk about in all of my videos is pretty much my experience, like it’s not factual and I don’t make it like it’s factual, like black and white. I just go by the experience I’ve had and I like to share it with everyone. Hope you enjoyed the video bro.

[@Ayerlooms]

I like the happy frog for veg and half and half strawberry fields and oven forest with heavy worm castings. Well 25/25/50. Is my go to.

[@marcusthompson7698]

I like happy frog for seedlings in a solo cup then ocean forest in a 1 gallon transplant then transplant again into 3 gallon pot with strawberry fields a week before flower and you will never need to add nutrients

Big rootz from the soil king. The best live organic soil on the market 👌

[@mobeus84]

Royal Gold Kings Mix is really nice mixed w OF at 50/50 ratio. let ur plants veg 2 weeks no nutes. then u can go w ur line. start at 25% strength ending at around 60% strength

[@420scene]

I definitely want to check it out but I go to my hydroponic shop pretty often and I don’t ever remember seeing royal gold kings mix so the next time I go I’m definitely going to ask about it because it does sound interesting and thank you so much for the comment. Every nugget of knowledge you guys throw is only going to help us all. We all have different theories and we all have our own methods but it’s really cool that we have each other to share the knowledge so we can all help each other out.

I cut happy frog with EB Stone Recipe 420 and add some perlite. The ingredients between 420 and Ocean Forest is pretty close. 420 can be as much as $5.00 cheaper per 1.5 cu ft bag. Ocean Forest: Ingredients Composted forest humus, sphagnum peat moss, Pacific Northwest sea-going fish emulsion, crab meal, shrimp meal, earthworm castings, sandy loam, perlite, bat guano, granite dust, Norwegian kelp, and oyster shell (for pH adjustment). EB Stone Recipe 420: Ingredients Aged Forest Products, Coir, Sphagnum Peat Moss, Pumice, Earthworm Castings, Feather Meal, Seabird Guano, Crab Meal, Fish Bone Meal, Humic Acid from Leonardite, Gypsum, Oystershell Lime (pH adjuster), Dolomite Lime (pH adjuster), Bat Guano, Kelp Meal and Wetting agent (Yucca Schidigera Saponin) enhanced with Mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial soil bacteria. Just throwing this out there. Your opinion?

Dairy Doo has a whole line bro from veg to flower to you name it highly recommended I'm running Dairy do flour blend right now with ocean Forest Fox Farm mix

[@shavewizard4203]

I have also been experimenting with Dairy Doo brand soils, Flower Doo and Vegie Doo and trying to see which one works best. Tried their Compost Tea last year (10Lbs for $10) but sometimes its hard to tell which product is working due to teh variables.

I used black gold moisture lock with coco. Ot organic . Mixed with a concentrated auto flower supersoil. I'll check brand and let know what was

[@420scene]

I really do want to try the Black Gold next. A few people here mentioned it in a few other videos. Also, what did you catch in your profile picture? I’m at bass angler myself. 😛

I use my own mix, starting off with some pro mix, already grown in and amended with cow manure, stonington blend, magnetite, and recharge

Dude your so right! I just purchased a bag of FFOF first one in three years 😬 Man your right all my seeds are whack won't get past the first leaf's and they're already curling up and stop growing I'll never waist my money on that again. They have changed the mix Big Time 😢

[@honestlynate7922]

I'm only halfway through my first grow and I just switched to flower. I've been using Fox farm nutrients on a feed feed water schedule through veg I am switching to a feed water water water feed schedule only when needed obviously. I have been using a third of the recommended dosages.

[@420scene]

The feed feed water schedule is actually pretty good since you are using a third of the recommended dosages. Let me know how it goes man.

[@gknox171]

So do I mix all 3 soils out the gate? What's the ratio? Also, what organic nutes do you recommend now? (8 months later) Told ya! I'm 3 hour in! Your my new go to guy!

[@gknox171]

By the I'm bout to start my remaining 5 ww autos

[@Jay-pc6jx]

We tried almost every soil on the market quite a bit. Pro mix soil has the best results. Fox Farm has poor soil texture the roots don't like it as much. Light warrior from fox farm has pretty good texture but mixing dirt gets old. Especially if you do bigger grows.Pro mix has little nutes in it so you will need add as you water. Mills nutrients are great (start mixing at 40% strength) or I really like the emerald line of nutrients you can mix full strength on that line. Try pro mix with Mills or Emerald you won't regret it.

[@mossfree]

I've been using Moonshine 64 out of Colorado with good results. Really only need additional nutrition during flower 🌹

[@therealiiamse7ven437]

Ima bottled nute Fox farm everything growmee 🧑🏽‍🌾🧑🏽‍🌾🧑🏽‍🌾🧑🏽‍🌾 ocean Forrest and 🍓 fields only . Honestly your so correct about the nutes and how you should feed . I recommend when use fox farm nutes feed when necessary.. like you say it’s not mandatory for you to follow those charts .. it’s more like you gotta feel what to do and do it.. lol if I said that right 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@420scene]

As a fellow stoner, I was actually able to keep up with what you said so no worries there. 🤣 And absolutely, you can’t just follow the chart.

[@therealiiamse7ven437]

420 Scene 😂 cool 😎

[@CHRISDJS72]

I’m using tomato plant growbag compost with some fish blood and bone and bone meal with a weekly small dose of seaweed food and my plants are growing like mad, it’s a shame I didn’t learn what I was doing before I started but it’s all a learning curve, grows I did in the past I used hydroponics and lights, now I just use compost and greenhouse and keep it organic 😎

[@Favs702]

I mix 2 bags of 1.5 Cu. of Ocean Forest to 1 bag of Happy Frog. I don't have to start using any nutrients until 35 to 45 days with my photo-period plants. But with Auto's, I have to start using nutrients around day 30, depending on the strain, because they have sucked all usable nutrients out of the soil. If you go much longer than 30 days with auto's, you will start to see deficiencies in the leaves. So, I am happy with Fox Farm Soils. You just need to pay attention to your plants by inspecting them every day and I promise, you will learn to grow top-shelf buds that are second to none.

[@420scene]

I’m already growing top shelf flower bro. I did this video a while back. I had some really killer grows under my belt. It’s all about amending your soil, oxygenating your water and your soil for proper aeration, and creating an aerobic environment. That right there is the key to having top shelf flour. Hope you enjoyed the video bro.

[@Ayerlooms]

Rice hulls !! My living soil loves em. I also get my own composted manure. Heavy alpha in it digested naturally lol. Buddy has a standard breed farm. Great stuff if ya. An find it.

[@NickSalwasser10]

Couldn't be more of a perfect time for this, thank you. I'm going with ocean Forest for seedlings in cups, and I'm going to do a 50%ocean, 25%happy, 25% cocoloco in 5gal, and start half fox nutrients after two to four weeks depending. Autoflowers.

[@HondaFan470]

I would advise against this. Ocean forest stunted, and killed my seedlings. The soil is known to be too hot for autoflowers specifically (or so I was recently told a few times). It is also way too dense. If you're going to use it you should mix it down with something like perlite.

[@NickSalwasser10]

@@HondaFan470 I'll try to give an update on a week of two my seedlings look very happy so far

[@420scene]

Brian M. Yeah man it’s way too hot. I agree. Ocean Forest is good if you mix with stuff like Happy Frog. Or just go with Strawberry Fields for the autos. Way way less hot bro. Good comment man.

[@purphaze759]

Good advice in my opinion as always i just got a mix pack from ilgm and they gave 5 free zkittlez seed I'm so loving it 😎

[@420scene]

That’s really nice of them man. I feel like they don’t do that very often but that is pretty rad.

[@buddad8814]

Ive never recieved any freebies from ilgm. Good seedbank but no freebees😕

[@jakestone2262]

You can also use ground up dried banana peels for the potassium

[@420scene]

Yes you can, I’ve also made banana tea.

[@chancellorpalpatineakathes6130]

I gave up on all the fancy soils. I just buy the cheap Kellogg stuff that’s basically all wood and tree fibers and wait out for the roots on the peppers to come out from the drainage holes then feed them that hydroponic liquid until they’re ready for outdoor planting.

I drop beans right in oceam forest with no issues ever. After about 4 weeka i start adding organic ammendments to the soil and water in. Never have any burn or issues

[@420scene]

That’s good. Not everybody he’s going to have issues and that’s great that it works out for you though man.

[@frankfavel6902]

I use ocean forest and the fox farm trio , no problems ever , and yes use 1/2 of recommended strength or less I made my own chart 2nd grow and 1 further thing don't overgrown, it's not rocket science

[@420scene]

Nobody said it was rocket science but horticulture is lots of fun and there are so many great methods and techniques.

[@tylernelson8917]

My first time growing right now using ocean forest and gotta say all the seedling look extremely healthy no burn. I am going to wait a good 40 days for the first feeding. Since you bring this up I feel that'll be safer to let the plants really drain the soil of the original nutrients before adding more.

[@tylernelson8917]

also my plants are autoflowers so they have a strong resistance to the temperatures compared to photoperiod so maybe they are doing better with the heat then a photoperiod.

[@420scene]

A lot of people have issues with it being too hot. I used to use FFOF from 2014-2017 and never had a problem but after I started having issues so I switched over to Happy Frog for seedlings and then transplant to Happy Frog and Strawberry Fields 50/50 ratio. I look at it this way, if my blend works for me and your FFOF blend works for you, we’re both achieving success.

[@bloodlinegaming9962]

have you ever vegged in a 5 gal and switched it to a 7 gallon with a different soil a week or two before you switch it to flower?

Im a new grower, i been using ocean forrest but i been feeding with liquid nutrient no matter now little a give them they burn or lock out, It made me wanna Quit, but after watching ur videos and learning more Im going to Strawberry fields next grow! And done with liquid nutrients! But Thanks!

[@mperkins37]

more demand, so it is fresher, less turnaround at the store, so its hotter, I Open the bags and dump into bins for a few weeks, mixing every few days, was a tip from someones channel to alleviate fungus gnats etc that might have been in the soil. But also takes the edge off the hotness of the mix.

[@SotaGrown]

Local store only carries Fox Farm ocean Forest sometimes Happy frog and strawberry fields that's what I use

[@420scene]

I mean you can run Ocean Forest but it is pretty hot so if you get a chance, definitely mix it with another soil that isn’t so hot.

[@SotaGrown]

@@420scene Yeah I know what you mean I haven't used Nutes.... it's been a month and a half. Plus I use RO water

I am currently looking to try OF mixed with Black gold at the seedlings stage and then transplant into the strawberry 🍓 fields for 1 plant. The 2nd plant I want to just run strawberry from seedlings all the way through flowering stage, would you recommend that? The 3rd plant I was going to just run OF all the way but now with ur knowledge it doesn’t sound like something I should and I don’t want to waste the seeds I have. I am trying to run at least 3 different ways to try to see what the outcomes will be, after this video I might pick up some happy frog 🐸 but then again I might just use the black gold as the substitute. Also working with photoperiods. Love the videos man keep it up!!!

Im using ocean forest cut 2:1with organic promix with exteme gardening mycos and azos for transplanting and for an occasional boost in microbe activity the azos allows your plant to use atmospheric nitrogen as well as from the soil might be something to try for the happy frog folks.

[@scottsaustin]

I just use Pro-mix, cut with 20% compost or earthworm castings or a mixture of both, 20% pearlite, about a cup of DE per 5 gallons of soil (control gnats & provide silica), 1/4 teaspoon Yucca Powder per 5 gallons as a wetting agent, and 2 tablespoons per gallon with Happy Frog All Purpose dry fertilizer-I store this in a large 20 gallon tote, moistened, and allow it to cook for several weeks before planting. I start in 1 gallon pots, then transplant to 7 gallon fabric pots at 3 weeks filled with the cooked soil. I top dress 3 weeks later at 6/7 weeks veg with Happy Frog Tomato & Vegetable at 2 TBS/gallon soil so 14 tbs per 7 gallon pot as my transition fertilizer, then top dress 3 weeks into flower with Happy Frog Fruit & Flower @ 2 TBS/gallon soil. Aside from a weekly root drench with FF Kelp Me Kelp You 1tsp/gal Big Bloom 2 Tbs/gal, Biog Ful-Power 1 Tbs/Gal it's water only - usually, I enjoy spending time in the grow room and like to experiment. Lately I've been using Root's Organic's HP2 & HPK 0-4-3 as flower boost weeks 5-7 of flower, but now I'm intrigued by this alaskan fish fertilizer 0-10-10 I've seen for $7 a quart at the Hardware Store locally
