Right now I'm using a mix called sunshine mix#4 along with fox farms grow big, tiger bloom, big bloom, cha ching, open seaseme,and beastie bloomz. My plants are growing good now but maybe I could add a couple of more things to my soil? Anyone ever used what I am and maybe a little more?

Sounds like a pretty complete line up too me,,,,maybe you could add a little lime in for ph control and perlite for drainage....but otherwise it sounds good....:icon_smil

unless your ready to go fully organic i would leave it alone your using lots of ferts and i think the sunshine #4 isnt as good as the pro-mix i used both and like pro-mix way better there basicaly the same but for some reason the plants like the pro-mix better if you want to add stuff to your soil go organic get a bale of canadian pro-mix add some worm castings, bat and seabird guano's,dried blood,
cotton seed meal, bone meal, biotone and lime thats just my mix i dont know the ratios i use i just pour it in till i think its good then mix it up but you can google it and im sure you can find all kinds of mixes you might even find them here also if you decide to go organic theres 3 types of bat guano 1 good for veging 2 good for flowering so when its time to flower i transplant them into a higher P and K mix and thru the whole grow i use plain water with a little epsom salt some plants suck up the nutes fast in flower so you might have to use your grow big or big bloom to pick up the slack and a 2 week flush is the best way to go
also if your not into mixing things try fox farms ocean forest or there happy frog but not the red bag all organic mix it sucks but the other 2 are great
