In a day or two I will start a new batch of seeds in this. This is a tweaked version of Dan Sutherland's seed starting mix.
Original Recipe:
- 3 Parts Peat Moss
- 3 Part Fine Perlite
- 2 Parts Coco Coir
- 0.5 Parts Worm Castings
- 0.25 Parts Kelp Meal
- A Healthy Serving of Myco innoculant
My Add-Ins:
- Some Calcium carbonate dissolved in water to maybe neutralize the peat (probably pointless)
- Yucca Extract to help with hydrophobicidity (50% sure thats a real word) and feed microbes
- ROOT microbe inocculant (I had an open bag of it and thought why not)
