Royal Gold Kings Mix | 3cu ft

Well-Aerated Coco-Peat Blend for Plant-in-Bag Growing, 3cu ft

Straight coco and straight peat each carry tradeoffs, and many growers want a blend that captures the best of both without building a custom recipe from individual ingredients. Royal Gold Kings Mix combines peat moss with coco chips, often called croutons, for a blend that balances aeration with lingering water retention, appealing equally to traditional peat gardeners and coco-first growers.

This 3cu ft bag is sized as a plant-in-bag format, suited to light deprivation, greenhouse, indoor, and outdoor gardens that plant directly into the bag rather than transplanting into a separate pot.

Key Features & Benefits

• Peat moss and coco chip blend — balances aeration with lingering water retention.
• Dries quickly and accepts immediate feeding — ready for a nutrient program right out of the bag.
• Light amendment charge — high-nitrogen, high-phosphorus bat guano and other dry amendments sustain plants for about 1-2 weeks before additional feeding is needed.
• Suited to a range of garden setups — works for light deprivation, greenhouse, indoor, and outdoor gardens.

Who Should Use This

Growers running light deprivation, greenhouse, indoor, or outdoor gardens who want a coco-peat blend ready for immediate feeding, without a heavy pre-built amendment charge overriding their own nutrient program, will find Kings Mix suited to that setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Kings Mix made of?

Kings Mix is a well-aerated, moderately amended coco-peat blend that combines peat moss with coco chips, often called croutons. The coco chips help balance aeration with lingering water retention compared to a straight peat or straight coco medium.

How quickly can I feed after planting?

Kings Mix dries quickly and accepts immediate feeding, so growers do not need to wait out an extended break-in period before starting a nutrient program. That quick-drying behavior is part of why it suits a plant-in-bag format.

How long does the amendment charge last before I need to start feeding?

The light amendment charge of high-nitrogen, high-phosphorus bat guano and other dry amendments sustains plants for about 1-2 weeks before additional feeding is needed. After that window, growers should move to their own feeding program.

What garden types is Kings Mix suited for?

It's suited to light deprivation, greenhouse, indoor, and outdoor gardens of any type. The plant-in-bag format of the 3cu ft size in particular is built for growers who plant directly into the bag rather than transplanting.

What sizes does Kings Mix come in?

Kings Mix is available in a 3cu ft plant-in-bag format and a smaller 50L all-purpose bag. Choose the size based on whether you want to plant directly into the bag or use it as a general-purpose growing medium.
