Off The Grid: The Quickest Way To Make Your Own Potting Mix
Greetings,
The Quickest Way To Make Your Own Potting Mix
If you’re new to gardening you may not be aware that you can mix your own potting mix. Creating your own potting mix isn’t as difficult as it sounds and is quite a satisfying project. If you have kids it’s also a great way to get them involved or interested in growing their own food.
There are numerous benefits to mixing your own potting mix. For example:
You know exactly what nutrients and ingredients are in your dirt.
It is economically beneficial. Buying bags of potting mix is expensive!
It ensures you won’t accidently expose your garden to pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals found in some store-bought potting mixes
Allows you to tailor your potting mix for different purposes (i.e. a custom herb mix, a custom tomato mix, etc.)
Teaches you how to properly add ingredients into potting mix to revitalize it
But there are some challenges to mixing your own potting mix. If you only have a couple of potted plants, you may not save very much money mixing your own.
Similarly, buying potting mix ingredients in bulk will take up space, which is a downside if you live in a city or even impossible if you’re in an apartment. Storing one bag of pre-made potting mix would be better than having to store multiple bags of potting mix ingredients.
Now, let’s get into the common components of good potting mix.
