Our soils are based on the 'Cornell Mix'. A peat and vermiculite base that's easily amended to suit the individual needs of any plant.

 

Zero-Mix is inert and well drained. This soil is useful in drip systems: Simply poke some holes in the bottom of the bag on one end to drain, cut an X every 8"-12" in the top of the bag to put your seedlings, insert your drip-line in the opposite end from the drain holes.

 

QuickMix Potting Soil

Quick-Mix is an all purpose garden and potting mix with 3 months of med strength fertilizers. Amend with cinder, Zero-Mix, Perlite, or Sand for epiphytes and shade loving plants.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Organic Garden Soil

Pure-Organic has a blend of composted slow release and immediately available nutrients. Enriched with pH stabilizers and beneficial microorganisms to reduce watering intervals. Avoid over watering except in tolerant crops like cattails and taro.

 

Root-Crop is designed to provide valuable starch building nutrients while limiting heavy metals that tend to build up in roots. To aid the growth of root-crop-plants you can provide micro nutrients and bio stimulants through a foliar feeding program.
