    What do you mean by custom? If I remember correctly, most of the bros including me use either ADA or Gex. The main concern I had when I selected ADA is its ph properties rather than its embedded fert when it came to crs.

    Think it is just the commercial name of the soil "Custom Soil". Spotted packs of it in LFS around Yishun when I popped by recently. Think it is similar to Ada or Gex.

    i'm using the custom soil for my cherry's. but well, a far cry from crs in terms of how sensitive they can be to acidity. but well, my cherry's are doing fine. planted petite nana and hairgrass, rather hardy plants. so i think it will do good for plants.
