Good find Matt, I've been told repeatedly by several local hydro shops that you cannot get this stuff over here. Glad to be proven wrong.
Hey, thank the RIU community, because one of you guys told me about it! I don't know how they get it, but they had it last time I checked.

At txh they told me they would send me 6 bags or more on a palette for $10 a bag for shipping, is that what you got? Seems almost reasonable to me if you really want the particular soil.

Yeah, that was what they charged. But in my case that only sent it to the closest spot for them in the state, I had to rent a truck and go get my dirt from the south bay. Pain in the butt. But now I got it... it's great except the damn gnats.

Here is my lineup as of recent:
BioTerra Plus, grade 3 perlite (big size), compost (vegan made by me), VAM (Bioag inoculant)

BioCanna: Vega, Flores, BioBoost
Canna: Cannazym
Hygrozyme
Bioag: Humic, Seaweed w micros and humic, Humic TM7, Ful-Power (fulvic foliar)
Molasses (K, Ca, Fe, Sugars)
Aloe Vera Juice (Ca, Mg, Sugars, Saponins)
Humboldt Nutes 0-10-0
Organicare Calplex (Ca) for soil, and Huvega (Mg) for foliar.
Technaflora seaweed, man this jar is going to last forever, especially because I switch between this and BioAg's seaweed.
Yup... I'm using some chemyzyme, I mean cannazyme, gotta use it cause I bought it... I plan on using some ProTek potassium silicate (not organic) in veg in the future as well, with my foliar. I think this will help with PM, always an issue here in grape country.

Also: neem and sulfur. Now I'm three weeks in to flower and if I have to I'll use serenade as spot treatment. No more oils or sulfur.

I bit that bullet and paid to ship a palette. F*ck that was expensive. I should've just stuck with FFOF and Happy Frog...
Yeah man, for sure. Currently I'm trying Roots Organic mixed 50/50 with Ocean Forest, then I amend that with extra perlite, Ancient Forest, castings, guano, lime, azomite, and some bennies. Put it all in five gallon Smart Pots, BAM, the future of rock & roll. I'm also playing around with Xtreme Gardening Azos this time around, we'll see how that fares.

I'm thinking of using my freezer to "sterilize" that bags I have.

Xtreme gardening products are all the rage here. I don't like the single specie approach, but then again, more diversity of microbes is good so if you aren't getting that specie elsewhere, I could see the benefit. Kushman and Shiloh were testing the Azos last year and didn't find it beneficial.

Will that actually work? My thought was that the fuckers survive the winter somehow in nature, so do they just go dormant? I ask because I'm trying to freeze sterilize my groups' trimmer right now as one person in our group has a spider mite infestation (ugh... this is why I don't like to share) and I'm uber paranoid about the fucking 'borg, man. DO NOT WANT.

I'd love to find a way to ensure there are no nasties hiding in there before I bring it into my basement.

The big benefit that I see with the Xtreme line (I was gifted the entire lineup to test them out) is that they use actual spores, whereas most companies use propagules. My understanding is that spores are far superior when building a colony, as they multiply much faster than the propagules can.

If you guys are looking for the best Mycorrhizal IMO is MycoGrow™ by Paul Stamets who is a very accomplished mycologist. His MycoGrow is pretty cheap too.
