This is my first time using Dr. Earth Slow release amendments im using COCO mixed with 15% perlite with 4-4-4 all-purpose. i also recently transplanted from a solo into a 2 gallon filling the hole with Mykos because the roots love it. I made a compost tea using some worm castings/kelp/blackstrap and alfalfa meal to wake the soil. Wish me luck
