Soil to use for outdoor grow

[nici]

yes they are Aussie and legit

I checked out red soil organics last night and very impressed with their philosophy. I know who I'll be buying my soil from in the future cheers gsm

There are shit loads of places in Perth to get decent growing soil.. are you north of the river or south? And do you have a Ute or access to a trailer?

Hello

Hi mate there are a few options for you to choose from

one is to make up your own mix with all the goodies

https://www.drgreenthumbs.com.au/ this mob supply some awesome products also there are a few "ready made" water only soil mixes

like https://ozstoners.com//shop/tse-red-soil-organics-soil-25-litre-bag.html this one from the Serrated edge forum looks great

The only thing I can say about the bunnings stuff is avoid potting mixes because they tend to get a bit hydrophobic after awhile

Good luck mate

Umm I've been looking into this and was possibly thinking about importing it to NZ but I cant order more than 10kg without getting a permit and this is kind of sketchy. Does anybody know weather this soil will pass biosecurity and MPI from Australia to NZ?

This place looks like they will sort you out mate.

 

The Website is a bit dodge but I'm pretty sure they will stock some quality organic type soil blends.

Also there are heaps of YouTube vids on building your own no till soils. And some of the ingredients like worm casting and composts can be bought on gumtree from backyard suppliers for f all.

 

Not sure about Coco in the ground. Sounds like a good idea if you do it properly cause you will have more control over how your plant is being fed than you would in some soils.

1 part peat/coco, 1 part good quality compost, 1 part aeration (scoria, perlite, sand etc.)

 

A old and common general homemade potting mix recipe.

So when people talk 'coco' on here, is this stuff suitable so long as it's adequately flushed??

[Frank Reynolds]

as long as you aren't using it by itself in a hydro situation. May need to buffer the cal/mag within it

Nah - just a soil mix for pot, then plant out to garden plot for flower.

should be fine
