Do you have a local hydroponics store or nursery near by?



I do, and have been using Fox Farm Happy Frog soil mixed with Farmer D planting mix (compost and pine bark). I've also used the Organicare line of soils and really like them for premixed soils.

Figured I'm spending $1-$2 more a cubic foot for premixed than if I did it myself, but would have to fork out much more money up front if I bought all the things myself and mixed it.
