I did this from an Excel spreadsheet so it is a little large as a
webpage (the XLS file is actually only about 37k for Office 2000.)
Here's the link, if you would like it as an XLS file so you can
calculate different volumes such as those in the the top half of the
page, or how much soil you will need to fit a certain size bed, e-mail
me & include the following:
(You must have a spreadsheet program. Let me know which version of the
following)
Excel or Office version (2.1, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0/95, 97, 2000)
Other spreadsheet format (wq1, wk1, wk3, wk4)
Any of the cells in yellow can be changed to whatever you wish to
calculate new amounts; see the link:

There were more mixes I left out because some of the ingredients weren't
available to me locally. One that is calculatable is Mel Bartholomew's
mix, author of Square Foot Gardening. There are also 4 seedling/seed
starting mixes listed.
