soil Anyone use Sea Soil before?

djdestructo · May 17, 2013

I just picked up some Sea Soil from the hydro show down the street, just wondering if anyone has used this before.
I was going to mix it into my ProMix BX when I pot up to the 7gal in a week or 2.

Personally, I wouldn't mix anything with the BX - it's about as good as you can get. You don't want to detract from it by adding soils to it. Just my two cents.

Figured it might add the compost side of things to the BX, but maybe I ws wrong.
Either way can use it with other veggies if need be

Belle Glade Sweet Corn is some of the best there is, that Black dirt is AWESOME! Florida is a Blessed place and I am blessed living 20 or so miles from there "In a swamp."
