Rico's Soil/coir-mix Walkthrough

1 slab of coco coir soaked in 5 L water & (Medi one + Procal + Rooting Tea + aussie tonic)

20 l of compost with woody bits in it.

5 l Perlite and 3 l Vermiculite

A good handful of seaweed/fish/mineral powder

A dash of Epsom salts

A dash of Bonemeal

A dash of sulfate of potash

And my ewenique wool/humus pellets





I started with 10 l of compost, then added Perlite and vermiculite.

Then added the ammendments

Then I Added the enriched Coco Coir (10 l)

Then I added the rest (10 L) of the compost and added The Wool Pellets

The soil was still too "clumpy"

so I added the rest of the perlite and some more vermiculite

I mixed with a stick in between each step

Then I was happy with the consistency

And it was a fairly homogeneous mixture

Then Mr. Squirryl let me transplant a seedling to try it out

I hope it is a good soil, obviously.

Time will tell
