Re: Pro-mix (Was: Re: baking dirt)


Gerry -

I mix my own potting "soil".  I have a bag of Promix that I bought at a
GARAGE SALE, but I usually use 4 parts sphagnum peat to 1 part perlite
and 1 part vermiculite.  If I'm using it as a soil amendment or to grow
already rooted plants, I add commercial manure and greensand.  You could
easily adjust the proportions for what you need.  I've rooted bat face
salvia and cigar plant in it this fall.  Maybe this helps a bit.  It's a
lot cheaper to mix your own.
