2 Ultimate Potting Mixes The most reliable mixes for all your growing needs All ferti-lome soilless mixes are designed according to every plants needs. We believe the home gardeners deserve the same high quality and consistency that professionals demand. That is why we employ high quality components in all the retail mixes. Mixed on our highly automated mixing lines, all of our mixes are carefully analyzed by our skilled quality control. By running chemical, physical and greenhouse tests we make sure that the potting mix you buy today is as good as the one you bought last month or last year. A good mix starts with good ingredients. Our primary ingredient in all our mixes is Canadian Sphagnum peat moss specially selected and screened in order to provide optimum air capacity and uniform moisture retention. Our exclusive organic black peat ingredient is a source of Humic and Fulvic acids. These acids are formed from the decomposition of plant material, and are safe to handle. They are found in most ground soil, only in very low concentrations. Black peat enhances plant food and water uptake necessary for optimum performance. This peat helps to reduce the stress that occurs during transplanting, while encouraging rapid and healthy growth. We also use a complete fertilizer, containing major and minor trace elements to provide optimum nutrition right from the start. Our professional wetting agent helps the mix to wet-out quickly and evenly. Our aggregates are carefully chosen in order to promote optimum air capacity and drainage.

These lightweight particles increase aeration and decrease water-holding when incorporated into soil. Horticultural Vermiculite Vermiculite is the mineral Mica, super-heated to expand much like an accordion. This mineral is often used in soil mixes to increase water holding. Many growers use vermiculite in their flats in order to create a micro environment that will protect seeds from air currents and insulate the seeds to provide uniform germination temperatures. Charcoal Charcoal acts as a filter to absorb impurities in water and improve air quality. It is excellent as a layer in the bottom of containers and in terrariums where water may pool. Charcoal also can help absorb impurities in fertilizer. 4 qts. bags 8 qts bags Decorative Floral Moss Floral Sphagnum moss is used to line wire frames and hanging baskets.
