Is that good or bad? There is just so much hype around substrates, I have just never wanted to get involved in it. I toyed with the idea of coming up with my own substrate mixes with soil, peat, or worm castings, but decided against it. The idea of of something cheap and easy in a five gallon bucket is intrigueing though. My hat goes off to them for coming up with the idea. It will be interesting to see if they can back any of it up with more data.

Ocean Nutrition came out with a fertilizer line under some Italian guys name, and the response on the internet has been it must all be marketing BS, and I have not read anyone even interested in looking at it seriously, and this is a big, nationwide multi million dollar manufacturer, so I find it rather ironic that people are willing to look seriously at a product from such a small business at a small scale that is't spending millions of dollars in ad campaigns!
