Description
A peat-free vegetable mix for the range of garden centres and resellers, and for landscapers building vegetable planters and raised beds. A blend of fine coir, wood fibre and bark, with clay for extra buffering and an organic fertiliser that keeps working for longer than a mineral starter dose alone.
The pH is slightly higher than in potting mix, to suit most vegetable crops. Acid-loving crops such as blueberry need a different substrate.
