Narda, Pro-Mix is a soil-less mix used a lot by nurserymen, composed of
peat, vermiculite and perlite. It's often available in a 3 cu ft bale from
garden centers. Also available by mail, at least from Hummert. If you us >>
Gerry, I have looked all over Cincinnati and the surrounding area and cannot
find Pro-Mix. I called my sister with the hort degree and she says that it
is commonly used in the Lexington area. The mix that I am using now is
called Strong Life, Universal mix. It is a soil-less mix, I love the coarse
texture, it doesn't seem to get swampy.
Maybe when I am in Lexington for the holidays I will pick up a bag of Pro-Mix.
What do you think, should I try Pro Mix or stick with the Strong Life?
Thanks,
Narda
