346ss..... You are going to get a hundred perfect receipes for this mix, from a hundred different growers. What we all will basically tell you, is to shoot for a light fluffy mix, that hold some water, but also drains well.
.
So let me recommend, 30 percent nice soil, 25 percent peat moss, 25 percent compost (which I did not see on the list) - 10 percent vermiculite, 10 percent pertilite. If you use more than 10 percent of the last two, they will float upwards - if watered heavily.
.
Leave out the gravel, then add one cup of guano & four cups of worm castings (which I did not see on the list) to each five gallons of finished mix. The reason I say wait to add these until afterwards, is to prevent wasting them.
.
Hope this helps.....
