Q:Is this considered a soil less medium?
by|Jan 23, 2024
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Most of our soils especially potting mixes and garden soils are made of composted forest products and contain very little if any actual soil. Composted forest products provide high organic content and nutrients without the concern for soil compaction which often occurs with potting mixes composed primarily of actual topsoil. The coarser material allows for air to reach the roots of the plant which improves plant performance for years. Professional growers have used potting media with a significant amount of bark pieces because it is a superior growing media for potted plants.
