- Reviewed in Canada on February 10, 2019Verified PurchaseExcellent soil and lots of it. Arrived on time. Very happy with this seller.
Update:
Two very large plants in 5 gal pots each. No nutes at all. One 5 gal pot filled all the way with this soil and one filled only halfway.
In week 2 of flower, the plant in the full 5 gal pot is beautiful, green and flowering in half of a 4 by 4 tent.
The second plant in the half-full 5 gal pot is the same size but has been yellowing - looks like a nitrogen deficiency.
My batch of soil was not nitrogen heavy as another user described.
The soil is excellent though. I should have used 5 gals for each 5 gal bag.
The soil seems to auto-PH itself. I have not been PHing my water at any point and I have very hard water.

- Reviewed in Canada on October 22, 2021Verified PurchaseAlways wanted to try this soil. 5 stars for early delivery and 5 stars for covering it and arriving with no tears. I'm sure it'll be good stuff. Thank you.
EDIT: Transplanted one houseplant and has grown well since I transplanted it a while back. I also grew one Blueberry x Mazar auto from seed with zero added nutrients and just plain tap water. It's doing pretty good.
I still got enough soil for another 2.5gal grow. It holds water well so be careful with overwatering.

- Reviewed in Canada on April 13, 2024Verified PurchaseTransplanted small seedlings that took off like a rocket
- Reviewed in Canada on November 7, 2024Verified PurchaseI transferred my 4 plants leaving seedling stage into veg stage for the first time trying fox farm with 40% FFOF soil 50% pro mix HP and 10% perlite (mind you these other two soils do NOT contain nutrients)
after a day i could already see nutrient burn to a high degree. I then flushed two of the 4 plants (in 3 gallon containers) with 9 gallons of water checking run off each and every time I pushed some water through. I measured the ppm reading 6413 ppm (absolutely insane amount of nutrients) after 5L of water after 9 gallons of water only able to lower the ppm from run off to 1587 ppm I then realized this just wasn't worth it and I would restart the process testing out a different company's soil.
No matter what people say about oceans forest I will never in my life use this product again.
To top that all off contacted fox farm and gave them all the information they asked for EXCEPT a born-on-date code which apparently was on the bag that the soil came in but after using all of the soil and throwing the bag out into the dumpster which then got removed to the dump. They told me since I did not have this code that there's nothing they can do to help. Absolute worst customer service from a multi million dollar company . Will never buy a single thing of theirs again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fox farms, Ocean Forest potting soil
Verified PurchaseThis is my favorite potting mix for my houseplants. Fox farm is really high-quality, and buying it from 鶹 beats driving 30 minutes north to the only nursery that carries this near me, and the price is comparable.
