Organic Pre-Fertilized
Potting Mixes

Just Right Xtra
Potting Mix
When the concept of mixing a product for serious container growers came into focus- we decided not to utilize peat moss because we did not want sphagnum impurities. Nor did we want inconsistant results. We were wary of our clients having to risk their crop growth performance due to widely ranging nutrient ratios in their soil mixes. Nor did we want our clients to experience any increase in the potential risk of dormant pests becoming active. Just Right Xtra was developed micro-bio-logically.
Just Right Xtra Potting Mix
Through extensive microscopic exploration and the development of micro and macro porosity; which is conducive to healthy beneficial bacteria, and fungi; Just Right Xtra All Organic Potting Mix insures the delivery of available nutrition to your plants.

Just Right Xtra goes well beyond the basic delivery of the traditionally, considered, essential, 19 major, minor, and micro elements found in most plant nutrient regimes. We deliver you biodiversity and consider the importance of the tens of thousands of biological species that are found naturally in pristine soil ecologies. Healthly, functioning soils sponsor a symbiotic relationship with their photosynthesizing green plant partners; which are anchored by living roots in their respective rhizospheres. Together they harmonize and become one in a tonic balance with Nature. It's important to get it Just Right!

Now, here is the real truth about gardening with our microbially diverse, sustainable, Just Right Xtra All Organic Potting Mix.

Bags of Biology?

Items marked with a General Hydroponics are manufactured by General Hydroponics and are incorporated into the Just Right Xtra All Organic Potting Mix:

First, Just Right Xtra incorporates General Hydroponics Cocotek coconut coir, a high quality, low sodium, growing media. This coir is the backbone to our more diverse and less compacted mix, allowing textural uniformity. This composite mix consists of millions of capillary micro-sponges per unit volume, that absorbs up to eight times the mixes oven dried weight in water. Our mix has a natural affinity to hold a 3 : 7 air to water stoichiometric ratio. Which assures you that Just Right Xtra will hold plant nutrition naturally until the microporosity releases oxygenated nutrient solution over extended periods allowing reduced watering frequency.

Second, Just Right Xtra adds General Hydroponics ancient biology from ancient forest Alaskan Humus which is an ultra-pure, ultra-organic "compilation" resulting from a very gradual collaboration between Mother Nature and Father Time. This unique and highly prized Alaska Humus is the byproduct of patience and good fortune, resulting from nearly 10,000 years of post ice-age, real-time, decomposition performed by the life processes of vast numbers and species of microbes throughout Alaska's annual cycles of long, dark winters and extremely daylight-intensive summers. Because of its incredible microbiological diversity (an estimated 35,000 species of bacteria and 5000 species of fungi) -- unlike manufactured commercial compost -there is a guaranteed absence of any human pathogens or synthetic chemical impurities from foreign residues.

Third, Just Right Xtra incorporates earth worm castings from Worm Power in Avon, New York. These are the best quality castings we have ever seen.

Fourth, Diatomite (Diatomaceous Earth or "DE") is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of the fossilized remains of unicellular fresh water microbes known as Diatoms. Sedimentary stratification over the millennia has compressed the remnants of these diatoms. This aggregation creates one of the most effective growing media components available. Diatomite consists of approximately 86% silica, 3% magnesium and 2% iron, with the remainder of its contents being mineral compounds; which are complimentary to plant growth.

Fifth, General Hydroponics Subculture M: a mycorhizae root inoculant that contains a wide diversity of endo and ecto mycorrhizal fungi that colonize plant roots. Subculture M allows for known beneficial fungi to find a place to reside around the root zones of plants.

Sixth, General Hydroponics Subculture B: is a probiotic inoculum of beneficial microorganisms that will help increase the vitality and yield in all plants. Microbes in Subculture B will attach themselves to root zones dramatically affecting plant performance in positive ways.

Seventh, Natural Organic Sulfate of Potash is a natural potash mineral that contains 51 percent potash and 18 percent sulfur. It also contains trace amounts of calcium and magnesium. Potassium is frequently the most abundant Major element in plant nutrition.

Eighth, Organic Bone Char contains more than 16% available phosphate (P2O5) and 32% total phosphate.

Ninth, General Hydroponics Rare Earth, derived from ancient seabed deposits of prophylactic clay that is blended with fulvate ore.

The pH in this mix is 7.01 which is perfect for keeping beneficial bacteria and fungi healthy and productive. There is no need to adjust the pH of any nutrient you add to this mix.

We suggest no nutrients for the first couple of weeks growing most plants. When you wet this mix with de-chlorinated water the runoff will be around 1300ppm which will aid in germination of any seeds or cuttings.

You literally won't find a more complete organic potting mix anywhere. Available in a 1.5 cubic foot bag (45 Dry U.S. Quarts).

Happy Frog
Natural & Organic
Potting Soil
Your potted plants deserve the best. Their roots can't seek out nutrients in the ground, so you have to bring it to them. That's why Happy Frog® Potting Soil is alive with beneficial microbes and fungi that heldown organic matter and feed the plant roots. Between the earthworm castings, the bat guano, container plants have never felt so good.
Fox Farm Happy Frog Natural & Organic Potting Soil
Happy Frog is alive with beneficial soil microbes. These little guys help convert organic material into a form plants can use. That's why we never steam sterilize our soil. We're always thinking about the little guy.

Foxfarm's craftmanship shows in the aged, finely screened, pH-balanced forest humus you'll find in our mixes. It gives Happy Frog a certain finesse that your cabbages will appreciate.

Foxfarm unleashes a high-octane boost of earthworm castings into every bag of potting soil. A healthy earthworm culture is bursting with life, full of regenerative organic material that plants thrive on.

Flowers go mad for Happy Frog because of the bat guano. Guano that has been sustainably harvested from tropical island caves. For centuries bat guano has been known to be a beneficial organic soil amendment which has a powerful effect on all kinds of plants.

Foxfarm never uses shredded construction debris or municipal yard waste in their products. Sewage sludge? Fuggetaboutit. Topsoil? Excavation materials? Cheap fillers? No way. Never. Those wood chips can rob nitrogen from the soil as they decompose, and that's just not fair to your plants. Besides, who knows what else is in that stuff anyway.

Happy Frog contains powerful root stimulators called Mycorrhizae fungi. Mycorrhizae occur naturally in forest soils where the humus content is high and the soil is thriving with microbial life. Once in contact with the plant's root system, mycorrhizae go to work right away colonizing directly onto a plant's roots. This activity dramatically expands both primary and secondary root development enabling the plant to take up more nutrients. The benefits are significantly enhanced fruit and flower production.

Happy Frog also contains Humic Acid, a naturally occurring material that is extracted from Leonardite. Humic Acid is found in certain soils, coals, and peat resulting from the decomposition of organic matter. Humic Acide may increase micro-nutrient uptake.

And don't worry - FoxFarm uses only the highest quality, premium ingredients - no cheap fillers, no topsoil, no sludge. Never. We promise.

Garden tip: Happy Frog® Potting Soil is perfect for container gardens. Whether you're growing a ficus in the dining room, a geranium on the patio, or a lemon tree on the deck, use our Potting Soil full strength in your containers. For a spectacular harvest, add our Peace of Mind® Fruit & Flower Fertilizer. Then sit back and enjoy the results.

Embrace the Vitality of Happy Frog! Planting Mix is designed to retain moisture so you can obtain glorious garden results and save water at the same time.
