Re: what are you using for potting soil?
I use a mix of coir/perlite/mini bark chips/slow release fertiliser for bigger plants, and a mix of perlite/vermiculite/coir for seedlings.
I use the highly compressed coir blocks, and wet it with a solution containing neem, fungicide, root hormone and plant booster. For nanas, I also use Mycorrhizal fungi when I remember! |

Re: what are you using for potting soil?
Mustang do you use this mixture with no soil at all or do you mean that you add it to soil?

Re: what are you using for potting soil?
No soil. For seedlings, no soil at all. For my other plants, they are all in pots so again, no soil.
