Question Which soil should i buy?
permalink

I'm having a bit of a dilema! I need to re-pot my plants and i don't know what soil to use. I am going to a UK garden centre so could anyone advise me on which soil to buy please?
Would standard compost do the job or do i need something a little bit special?
Many Thanks,
Dr GreenThumb

I heard of people using "peat moss" + "perlite" + "vermiculite" mixed in equal amounts, you better have some nutes ready to go though.

Buy a compost and a bag of perlite use 20 % perlite,I would recomend buying the best that you can afford but if you buy the cheeper stuff riddle it the soil will be top soil then.I would also go for a soil with no added feed because this f@cks my feeding up has i use a feed.
