Peat/Verm Casing???

#725114 - 07/05/02 05:40 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

Hey all!

I have peat moss and vermiculite and i want to make a casing. I heard something about peat moss being too acidic, is this true? If so how do i fix that?

Can i do a 50/50 Peat moss/verm casing? Is there anything wrong with that?

Thanks,
Fd

I was gonna make my own 50/50+ but had a hard time finding lime and just went with the jiffy mix. I'm ready for the poo now anyway. So i'm stuck with a BIG bag of peate and 50lbs. of crushed oyster shell. Anyone need some oyster shell?
