yup. ocean forest is the best soil ive used. i mix 40% perlite and 60% ocean forest. i start adding nutes when my bottom leaves begin to yellow a bit.

It is the ONLY soil I use now-a-days, for everything, but especially for our favorite smoking plant.

It's a great base for an organic setup.

The 40% perlite is a good idea, as this soil is very thick. I always cut it with about this much for optimal results.

I also have had good results with wacky tabcky, buy cubies ?
what i did was mix 2 cups of brown rice with 4 cups of fox ocean., and pressure cooked for an hour and im just waiting to see the results!

any one used it for this?? it would help if youd help. thanks

I think I remember seeing someone making a Pan Cyan cake similiar to this. They had the nutrients in the middle, then the Ocean Forest on the outside. Apparently it provided contam protection + outer moisture retention for fruiting Pans from the cake. The mycelium did seem to take kindly to it.

i used it then scrapped the idea when i got a bit bigger. i ended up using ProMix (black bag) mixed with worm castings and perlite. It seemed to work just as well and was less expensive. FFOF can get pricey.
