The Right Kind Of Organic Soil For Seed Starting


    Everything we, as humans, need to survive on a daily basis can be grown from soil. Whilst the only way to truly grow a healthy nutritional-rich plant is from seed. Meaning that we will need some bags of soil. When you talk about soil for seed starting, you are going to have to make a checklist.

Seed Starting Soil
    ¤ Peat Moss (A compost of dead plant matter)
    ¤ Worm Castings (Nutritional Values)
    ¤ Vermiculite (Growing Medium)
    ¤ Steer Manure (Fertilizer)
    ¤ Dirt or Sand (Growing Medium)
 
   In your soil you are going to need amazing drainage, water retention, organic matter and nutrients for the best result. If you follow this checklist that should help better your outcome for your seeds and your future crop results. Remember if the top of your soil is damp, don't water! You can kill your seeds by over-watering and then you'll have no fruit from your labour! I hope this checklist helps you out, thanks for reading!!

Until next time,
Keep it Green and Keep it Growing!
