I use FFOF and have heard it can be a little hot. I mix FFOF with natural seed starter soil to germinate seeds. I throw a little seed starter in the hole when transplanting seedlings to final grow container. I believe once seedlings get a little age, two to three weeks, the roots can better handle the hotter soil. My leaves show slight nute burn, tiny burn on the very tips of leaves, but plants have been fine even using FF nutrients a few weeks after transplanting. Good luck and happy growing!

Dagmar- by the time the plant needs to transplant from a 1/2 gal to a 3 gallon pot- it should be able to handle it without issue.

I wasn't suggesting a do nothing approach merely stating that if your chosen mitigation step doesn't work your plant will still do fine, most likely. Next time I use Ocean Forest I am going to mix it so it's less harsh.

I might include Happy Frog in an Ocean Forest mix when I transplant. Thanks.

Just what I was hoping to hear. When I'm ready to transplant into 3gallon pots, I'll follow 9fingerleafs advice. Thanks

I've started a seedling in FFOF for testing purposes (nirvana freebie) and it did just fine. I started it in a plug though.
A popular choice is to mix happy frog and ocean forest. Or, you can use straight happy frog until they get a bit bigger and transplant to ocean forest. Light warrior works as a substitute for happy frog too.

Hmmm, just put my new baby into Ocean Forest (with Kind soil at bottom) after starting it in 4 inch peat pot. It's still quite small (only 4 days old), and now I'm wondering how it will react when roots hit the Ocean soil. Time will tell...I'm not planning on replanting. 🌱 Hope SSdude is correct! 😊

I ignored the burn ocean forest caused my plant. They grew vigorously.
