I need to be able to just buy it.

Anyone local that does make their own I'll pay well for some.

Called every local hydro store that was open the other day. None of them had anything decent.

there is a shop in woodland park that makes 2 types of their own soil. i'm not a dirt guy so don't know much about it. the shop is on hwy 24 right in the middle of town.

Why not make your own? You can make it much cheaper than you could ever buy at a store.. Like MUCH cheaper. It's well worth your time even if you work 60-80 hours a week.
Plenty of soil recipes online.
Good luck!

Yea guys. I am aware I can make my own. But I need to be able to just purchase it.
Why's that? Regardless, best of luck in finding some.. If you can't, then ffof is probably the next best thing as far as hot soil goes. Throw some ewc in there and you could go start to finish just watering with pretty good results.
Good luck.

Pike's Peak Hydro??

Found em on google but the number is disconnected. They have a (shitty) website but if you click on anything it says down for maint. Can anyone confirm they are still open(or not)?

I make my own soil and have a good bit left over from my last run. I don't know how much you're needing but if you're interested let me know

Ah yea, didn't have that much on hand anyways, maybe have like 5 cf. If you're ever looking to source locally in the future let me know I can mix any amount of soil given enough heads up

*edit: what do you pay for that amount of soil anyways? If you don't mind me asking that is

The Sensi is around $60 per 1.5cuft bag. I know it's high but there are a few reasons I can't/don't want to mix my own and in the grand scheme of things, it's nothing for the amount of quality bud I get.

That's insane. If at all possible you should learn to make your own. It's not very difficult. Takes a little bit of trial and error, but in the long run is way more than worth it.. You can even let it cook indoors in the same room as your grow. I can make something very similar for 15-20 bucks per 1.5 cu. ft. Tops. Probably cheaper. Ocean Forrest or roots only
Cost me 9.99-10.99/ bag, but that's getting bulk amounts and I have a really good relationship with the store owner.

Just using ocean Forrest and organic teas/nutes you can get the same quality bud, but MUCH cheaper. Maybe a little more work, and a little more experience is needed, but way worth it in the end.

I hear ya, gotta do what you gotta do if you can't make it yourself you gotta pay for the quality, can't disagree with that

Everything is relative.

Insane to you is paying for quality soil when you can make your own. Insane to me is trying to cook up a bunch of soil to save a few bucks when my time is better spent elsewhere.

I have a job that keeps me busy, I work from home and am renting and don't have a ton of extra room. I don't grow for profit or for others. I grow for myself, to save money and ensure proper practices(although I trust Kind Love, only bugs I've got from them were lady bugs, haha).

And buying it ensures consistency and mitigates the variables. And using super soil makes it nice and easy, just add water, feed or dress if it needs, done.

I know this will sound narcissistic as hell, lol... But I've used Sensi my last several grows and I have yet to see or try "amateur" home grown as good as mine. I see a lot of pics from kill growers on IG and frequently think, "damn that looks just like my plant did!" lol. And I'm hoping once I get a little better at things, especially drying and curing, my terps will be even better, haha.
