I believe the general consensus is ā€œdonā€™t use itā€!

Three issues with MG: fertilizers added that leach into the soil over time so you burn plants and canā€™t flush it out. Media has ā€˜moisture retentionā€™ additives which will drown a plant and finally the media is not buffered into a PH range that cannabis can access and only goes down further as soil is used.

There are a number of decent soils available through Fox Farms, Roots Organics, Promix, Black Magic and some Scottā€™s products.

And there are some regional soils like yours and a few more in the Northeast IIRC.
