How To Make Soil Block Mix

MAKING YOUR OWN SOIL BLOCKING MIX When making your own soil-blocking mix with compost, you must likely mix in a fluffing agent like coco coir, peat moss, perlite, or vermiculite. There are pluses and minuses to all of these options, which we go into in this article on Growing Media. You will also add something with a sandy texture like dolomite lime or greensand and some minerals in the form of rock dust. Remember, if you will be using peat moss, which has a low pH, you will need to use dolomite lime to raise the pH of your mix. If you use a more neutral fluffy material like coco coir, you can use greensand, which has a more neutral effect on the mix. SOIL BLOCK RECIPE 4 parts sifted coco-coir or peat moss 1 part grit like sand or vermiculite 3 parts sifted well-aged compost For every gallon of mix that you make, add ¼ cup of dolomite lime or greensand and ¼ cup of basalt rock dust. These add minerals and act as binding agents. ************************************ Want to learn more about making soil blocks? Check out this resource - https://www.bootstrapfarmer.com/blogs...
