Organic Germinating Mix Gives Seedlings a Big Head Start

Can the best seedstarting mix get better? Our tests say yes! This 100% Organic Germinating Mix is the new gold standard for starting plants from seed. Sphagnum peat and perlite give it the same fine texture and superior moisture-holding characteristics as our original Germinating Mix. The addition of compost, protein meal and trace minerals puts this organic seedstarting mix in a whole new league with results that impressed even our most experienced gardeners: faster growth, heftier root systems, and beefier plants. Recommended for all of our seedstarting systems. 6 quarts.

  • Specially formulated mix gives seedlings the best start possible
  • Well-drained blend wicks moisture at the optimal rate for young plants
  • 100% organic, with compost, protein meal and trace minerals

    Comments about Organic Seedstarting Mix:

    After several years of using other commercial seedstarting mixes and also mixing my own, I tried this. After several years of using it, I highly recommend it to those who are new to seedstarting so they will be successful. With this I don't need to transplant as soon as I previously had to. And this year I am adding the PHC fertilizer so my little sprouts will really have a great start.

              Comments about Organic Seedstarting Mix:

              I can at this time emphasize that potatoe plants "propel" their growth with this product. Today I planted seeds in the cowpots, using this. I shall assume it and the cowpots will give us fantastic plants "smiling" at us. Therefore, I cannot rate it for vegetables, seedlings, herbs or flowers yet. I'd appreciate an opportunity to send a supplemental report in a few weeks after the progress has been displayed in the cowpots and subsequently in the garden plot. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

                    I compared this product to the transplant mix, a differnent brand of mix and my own compost mix and it beat them all as far as starting seeds. They came up fast and healthy. Great product.
