ORGANIC SOIL BLOCKING RECIPE

It is best to wet your mix some hours before you make blocks to improve penetration of water into the planting medium.

• 3.5 Parts Organic Compost, free of weed seeds and disease.
• 2 Parts each Peat Moss, Coco Coir, and Small Pumice / Perlite
• .5 Parts Worm Castings
• 1 cup each of Feather Meal (nitrogen), Rock Phosphate (phosphorus), and Greensand (potassium).*  These amounts are based on each ‘1 Part’ above equaling an ‘8 Qt. bucket’, or 10 buckets total of bulk soil materials. Adjust nutrients according to the total quantity being made.       

* Nitrogen helps plant foliage grow strong. Phosphorous helps roots,  flowers, and fruit develop. Potassium is important for overall plant health.
