    Soil Opinions

    Just looking for some input on soil, What do you guys like to use? I've had success with Fox Farm Happy Frog and Ocean Forest before and preferred the Ocean Forest mixed with about 30% perlite. I've heard people have had good outcomes with Pro-Mix HP. What do you guys prefer?
