The Pro mix in this makes it not organic since Pro mix has no organic products, not even the BX.

Was really excited to give this a try after seeing it on the 10x10 YouTube series. Of 7 seeds that popped a healthy taproot in water and then placed into soil, 6 of them sprouted. Used a dome until all the sprouts popped.
Gave that 7th seed 2 weeks to sprout, holding onto hope lol no dice.
Now in the product video Jeremy says you shouldn't have run into a limiting factor before transplant. After about 2 weeks, once the girls were big enough to transplant, they were DEFINITELY getting hungry for multiple nutrients.
Now this next part may be user error. I'm not sure. But for the first time on any of my grows, I had the root ball collapse on me during transplant. I noticed the soil was SUPER airy compared to what I usually use for seedlings, not sure if that's why or if I let the soil dry out too much prior to transplant but it was no fun having vigorous seedlings with collapsed rootballs.
I also never got any of that fungal growth across the top of my soil like in the video.
I will definitely continue using this soil but may need to tweak it a bit to correct those issues.
