Mix My Soil Thread

Well, this is what I have to work with

Bone Meal 6-12-0
Blood Meal 12-0-0
Perlite
Scott's Topsoil

I couldn't find the worm castings at wally world. Sooo, I'm highly ignorant with mixing soil, so if anyone here knows of a good partart ratio blend I'd be more than happy to hear it. Preferably with the four mediums I have listed.

Perlite

Read the FAQ section on top. Also you don't have four growing mediums; blood and bone meal are fertilizers.

I was at a loss for the word. My apologies. I have soil and some additives. I shall check the FAQ, didn't think they had any frequently asked questions on the different variations of perlite, topsoil, blood and bone meal.

Lol, I mean no disrespect; however the FAQ does answer many questions. Also there are many threads on soil ratios, many tried and true. First off, I'm no expert; but you question raises more questions. Are these for seedling? The Scott's soil may contain some perlite, I'm not familiar with it but I usually like a little more. If you are using it for seedlings I would not add any additional nutrients; most packaged soils contain enough nutrients for your babies until they become established and can handle some nutes. Better to err on the conservative side. Good luck and happy growing.

You're fine man, I didn't mean to come off as an ass, haha. I am making some soil for some seeds I'm germing. Again, I'll check and see what the FAQs have to offer before I continue. I would love to know of some ways of using my Bone and Blood meal as teas like the above guy mentioned.

That soil would work for ya..

It's missing coco or peat - to hold water? lol

Coco has a better PH, but it's harder to find
