Fox Farm is very good. I would go half strength up front. When you start you next grow we can help you balance out your soil.

If you have the space and money,I would start getting my soil ready now. Have you looked into Coco Coir,Perilite and Worm Castings? It will be very forgiving.

Did i hear someone say buying beneficial bacteria??? What a load of⌠anyways how you bottle beneficial bacteria? They just gonna die. You could boil some rice hard then fill a wood box 3inchs max and put in the woods for a bit with a screen over it so no bugs get in. Go back in like a week and youll have all the beneficial bacteria you need. I have a post on how to gather lactobacillus bacteria go check it out:) dont waste your money. You need that to eat healthy.

I use Extreme Mykos and Azos once in a while. They are active when kept cool and dry. I see the owners often and trust them. @lotus710 is right to be untrusting however. A lot of stuff on the shelves is hype.
Edit: I donât use them all the time and donât think they are necessary. I am not a shill for extreme.
I think i have coir and perlite on hand already from growing mushrooms, Iâll have to look around. Beneficial bacteria is just hype? Glad I didnât run out and get some todayâŚ

Agro bacterias are sellin in âsleepin, inactive or dry fromâ. The important part is " activate it" with warm water n same organic materia like molasses (melazas)âŚ

An easy way of aded PK to your soil: 10% of wood ashes (I uses palmtrees, olives, encinas n fruit trees) n 1/4 of fruit bats guano.
Or buy a bottle, like Delta 9 & 10 Cannabiogen, or Canna Bloom Organics, Top Crop molasses n floration products, etcâŚ

Do you have any literature that supports your claims about over the counter beneficial bacteria?
Coir makes a good casing layer. It retains moisture and provides structure for the mushrooms to grow on. Perlite is good for maintaining rh in small tub growsâŚ
