A Proven Soil From Fox Farms Using Inputs From The Land & Sea To Create A Blend Full Of Everything Your Plant Needs!

Our most popular potting soil, Ocean Forest® is a powerhouse blend of aged forest products, sphagnum peat moss, earthworm castings, bat guano, fish emulsion, and crab meal as well. Ocean Forest even contains oyster shells to help balance the pH. Aged forest products; sandy loam, and sphagnum peat moss give Ocean Forest® its light, aerated texture.
