Good soil has some minerals in it. Why no sand or similar? This stuff will break down and shrink in pots. Do you just grow short term with this mix?

[@eatingamandarin]

Terribly helpful video 👍. Thank you. Curious about the added gypsum in your potting mix since you’re adding slow release complete fertilizer to the mix as well. Is there a specific reason?

[@eatingamandarin]

@hudson Ahh, ok. Can you explain the difference for a novice?

[@eatingamandarin]

@hudson Sorry. Still confused. Just googled gypsum. Calcium & Sulfer & Oxygen... are these nutrients or minerals?

[@kornellius7452]

@@eatingamandarin gypsums a claybreaker with neutral pH probably wouldn't do much, she mightve meant perlite or something

[@patferguson572]

Thank you so much! Just wondering - no sand or perlite?

[@Exiledk]

Wonderful. Now, how do I get all that machinery and how do I fit it into my greehouse?

[@patferguson572]

haha! Yep, me too

[@Dee_Cee227]

Is that NZ accent ? Beautiful accent and a beautiful lady. I will use the knowledge for my next project. Thank you

[@juliebrown2857]

Australia accent

How long would you expect this mix to last before repotting becomes necessary or do you just top up for slump?

[@benschiavi2288]

I wonder how acidic that pinebark is

[@johnmcneill923]

No mycelium??? No sand??

[@5josullivan]

Peat moss will do the same. This is a advertisement trying to push a more expensive product from a different country. Choose whichever meets your needs or desires but don't let these people push a false narrative on you.

[@patferguson572]

Peat moss is a non-renewable resource, whereas coir is coconut husks.

[@1w561]

Coir is much cheaper than peat in Australia (where this is produced). This isn't some conspiracy by Big Coir.
