Our potting soil is a 50/50 blend of peat moss, vermiculite biologically complete worm castings, extracts, and foods for continuous nutrient cycling!
We've carefully blended premium ingredients to create a mix that goes beyond basic seed starting, focusing on natural, biological support for your seedlings:
Biologically Complete Soil Base: Our base isn't just inert filler. It's a specially formulated soil blend teeming with beneficial soil life. This creates a dynamic environment that supports natural nutrient cycling and root development right from the start.
Powerful Microbe Inoculation: We've infused this mix with a diverse community of beneficial microbes. These microscopic powerhouses work tirelessly to:
Boost Nutrient Availability: Microbes break down organic matter, making essential nutrients readily accessible to delicate seedlings.
Enhance Root Development: They promote strong, healthy root systems, crucial for nutrient uptake and overall plant vigor.
Improve Stress Resistance: Beneficial microbes help seedlings become more resilient to environmental stresses and transplant shock.
Nutrient-Rich Worm Castings: We've incorporated biologically complete worm castings – nature's perfect plant food. These castings provide:
Gentle, Slow-Release Nutrients: A balanced supply of essential nutrients in a form that's easily absorbed by young plants, preventing nutrient burn.
Growth-Promoting Enzymes & Hormones: Naturally stimulate seedling growth and development.
Improved Soil Structure: Enhance aeration and water retention, creating an optimal root environment.
Classic Seed Starting Base: We've combined these biological powerhouses with the traditional favorites for seed starting:
Peat Moss: Provides excellent water retention and aeration, creating the perfect texture for delicate roots.
Vermiculite: Further enhances aeration, drainage, and moisture retention, ensuring consistent conditions for germination and early growth.
The Benefits for Seed Starting and Seedling Repotting:
Faster Germination: The biologically active environment and readily available nutrients can encourage quicker and more consistent seed germination.
Stronger, Healthier Seedlings: From the start, seedlings develop robust root systems and vigorous top growth thanks to the balanced nutrition and microbial support.
Reduced Transplant Shock: Well-established root systems in this mix help seedlings transition more smoothly when repotting or transplanting into the garden.
Enhanced Nutrient Uptake: Microbes and worm castings work together to maximize nutrient availability, ensuring seedlings get everything they need to thrive.
Naturally Disease Suppressive: Beneficial microbes can help protect young plants from common soil-borne diseases.
