I have always used Fox Farm but ran out this year. My hydroponics guy recommended Empire Builder so I gave it a shot.
Was not impressed when I started using the bag. Not well mixed, chucks of stuff, and a big rock but I started the seeds anyway.
Bought a bag of Fox Farm from another place and started a second round. Funny thing, the Empire Builder seeds have come up WAY earlier. SO did a side by side test, same seeds, same location on the mat. Empire came up in 3 days, Fox Farm hasn't yet. Interesting.
Anyone using Empire Builder?
