Best Soil

[I EAT WEED]

I have found that BLACK GOLD is unbelievable soil to work with. I'll post some pics of my new power plant grow tomorrow. I started one in foxfarm light warrior and one in black gold, and :holysheep: ...the black gold little green monster looks like it is on roids. Just thought I would share with the community.

I use Black Velvet mushroom compost from Lowes and it is silky and has no fillers like bark, roots. I highly recommend it too. I'd say as a rule of thumb any mix with the words "black" in it is gonna be super-rich.

Lowe's website says "Black Velvet" is a 40lb bag of
Black VelvetŪ
40 Lb. Black Kow Premium Topsoil

Does not say anything about mushroom compost?

Well I bought it a Lowes, just go to the store and see, they have bulked up their inventory for summer and probably have stuff at the store that's not listed on the site. I even saw superthrive at walmart yesterday!

Black gold is #1 in my book.

SunGro is second for a good bulk outdoor base soil.

According to Black Velvets site, the Black Kow TOP SOIL is supposted to be good for all kinds of things, not just outdoor plants... However, I would like to try this "BLACK" stuff... I know topsoil is a NO-NO, but in this particular scenario, do you think it can be used?

If not, I will try and find some other "black" soils :)

I use it but I mix other things in also. I mix in vermiculite a lil perlite some worm castings and Diatomaceous earth (<-- that stuff is gold for gnats) and i think it was an awesome mix.

PS If anyone has any suggestions on anything else that may need to be added please feel free to share :D
