Frequently Asked Questions

What is the air-to-water ratio for?

The balanced air-to-water ratio is meant to support both porosity and water retention. This helps fast-growing, heavy-feeding plants get consistent moisture without the mix staying waterlogged.

How do I plant directly into the bag?

The bag can double as a grow container, so cut the top open and plant directly into it. That skips the extra step of transferring the soil to a separate pot before use.

Those ingredients supply both structure and organic fertility.

Does it include mycorrhizal fungi?
