i use it, as crazy as it sounds I take the nute balls out, now I know I cant get all of them but I use the MG moisture control for my young plants and use a misting bottle when I am applying the dirt in the pot I first spread the soil out on a large poster size piece of paper and I spread out the dirt most bigger nute balls roll dowd.....then i get what I can out and then handful after handful double checking, now a lot of people would say why that's a waste of time, well im limted and also it WORKS now im not telling anyone to do it but I am giving my input, I must add when plants are flowering (the last transplant) lately I have been making my own mix but I have had several plants come out of MG MC and smoke just fine!
