Make Your Own Seeding Soil Mix! Potting soils can get expensive, but they pale in comparison to what Seeding Soils cost. There's nothing special about Seeding mixes in particular, but the qualities that make a good seeding soil are necessary to really maximize your germination and early growth results.
Yes, seeds will sprout in just about anything, including plain water and even wet paper towel. But its the subsequent growth for the 1-3 months before those plants are taken outside that give most gardeners problems. Poor growth, stunted stems, or worse, fungal problems and damping off. These are all often directly correlated to the quality of your Seeding Soil.
So today, let's just make our own Seeding Soil using just two base ingredients, coconut fiber and organic compost. We'll elevate that mix using a few amendments, but how far you want to take your mix is entirely up to you!
