Potting Soil for Container Gardening
POTTING soil
Container gardening allows you to plant vegetable or herb gardens as well as flowers, trees or shrubs in all sorts of creative places. Perfect for the urban gardener, they allow plants to grow in controlled settings or inoperable spaces and conditions.
Soil³ Veggie Mix can be used for container gardening.
Plant straight in Veggie Mix and use it as a rich potting soil. No need for fancy potting mixes that contain peat and other fillers.
Veggie Mix is great for pots and container gardening because of the following properties:
- Moisture retention
- Slow release of natural nutrients (no fertilizer needed)
- Balanced pH
- Improved drainage from included refined wood fibers and bark fines
- Natural disease suppression
- Beneficial soil microbes
- You can plant straight in it - no mixing
- Recommended for outdoor use only
