Product details

How to use it

First identify the needs of the plant, then add suitable components: the source mentions perlite, pumice and grit. Blend thoroughly and check the moisture after repotting.

Base Mix is not a universal recipe to use indiscriminately for every species. It is not recommended for fertiliser-sensitive plants or setups where animals could ingest the substrate.

Related choices

• Perlite: to lighten a customised recipe.
• Fine pumice 4–8 mm: to add mineral structure.
• Universal Mix: if you would prefer a versatile, ready-to-use mix.
