Request pickup or deliveryA real nice potting soil: a little less hot than Living Soil and more workable, the one to pick if you like to feed from the bottle.
Gold Blend sits on a 50/50 coco and peat base with less compost and fewer minerals than Living Soil, treated with natural inputs and beneficial microbiology for steady nutrient uptake through seedling and vegetative growth.
What's inside
- Country Roots biologically active vermicompost
- A 50/50 peat and coco coir base
- Mineral and pH balancing amendments
- Mycorrhizae to partner with your roots
- Perlite for aeration
How to use
Wet the soil and work an even moisture through it before potting or transplanting, then water as needed. Add liquid or top feeding through the season if your plants ask for it.
Which soil?
- Seed Starter: the least hot. Seeds, seedlings and clones.
- Gold Blend: moderate. A 50/50 coco and peat potting soil with less compost and minerals, so it stays workable if you like to feed from the bottle.
- Living Soil: the hottest. The most compost and minerals, about 10% coco, built for bigger pots and beds you keep growing in.
- Hot Coco: like Gold Blend on straight coco, no peat.
Plenty of growers layer them: Living Soil in the bottom of the pot, Gold on top.
Which size?
1 gallon repots a single houseplant. 2 to 3 gallons handles a few containers. 1 cubic foot fills about 7 gallons of pots. 27 cubic feet is a full cubic yard: enough for a 4x8 raised bed filled 10 inches deep.
