I'm changing my soil mix based on cost and performance. My initial mix was as follows (not including oyster shell powder and such, just the bulk volume):
*this is intended for a lot of compost tea innoculation
Base Mix (25%):
Earth Worm Castings 12.5%
Compost 12.5%
Amendments (75%):
Coco Coir 32%
Peat moss 20.5%
Pumice 7.5%
Vermaculite 7.5%
Perlite 7.5%
Now I'm trying to figure if i can just substitute peat for coco and pumice, vermaculite, and perlite for rice hulls. The result would be as follows:
Base Mix (25%):
Earth Worm Castings 12.5%
Compost 12.5%
Amendments (75%)
Coco Coir 52.5%
Rice Hulls 22.5%
How does this look? Any thoughts that come to your head would be useful to me.
