Thank you I did a calculation and it said I would need 60lbs of Flourite to achieve a 3" deep bed, I did it for Eco-Complete and it came up with 90lbs. Why would I need so much less Flourite than Eco?
Only guessing here, but, Flourite is heavier than Eco, and maybe this has to do with it.

Flourish is only a trace mineral supplement and does not provide any of the macros (Nitrogen, Phosphorous or Potassium - N, P, K).

Check out the plantfinder to get some ideas/info.
