Great video. Coco peat alters ph no matter how much you adjust the ph of your water/ feed solution. So some lime would help to keep the medium.close to a neutral ph wich is 7. This will make sure the beneficial bacteria can continue the symbiotic relationship with the roots. Great information as always. Thank you.

One more sub only for your noble work.. a lot of us loose hope on home gardening due to lack in apt knowledge. U are promoting the thought and reigniting hope at least for me. Keep up this noble work. May lord bless u...
My main challenge in growing seedlings is Fungus and small ants. They just kill the plant and its so disappointing. All my efforts go down the drain. So someone told me that my potting mix was not correct. I used red soil 60%, cocopeat 30%, 5% vermi and 5% neem cake powder. No sand. Within a few days ants and fungus would come and if the plant germinated, it would die in a few days. I have tried mixing Turmeric, cinnamon powder but it hasn't helped. Hopefully with good fine sand, I will have less fungus. I don't want to use chemical pesticides yet. It will be the last resort.
Include trichoderma in your seed starting mix as a biofungicide. Also sand or soil, you dry in hot sunlight before mixing. Also check this video czcams.com/video/eLACnABG2LM/video.html
Also for roof top gardening the suggestion is for cocopeat 50%, compost 30%, perlite 20%. I've created my potting mix using cocopeat 30%, vermicompost 30% and perlite 30%. Also I've made nine holes of 6mm diameter. I'm not putting any stones or gravel at the pot's bottom. Still I'm seeing that the potting mix is holding a lot of water. If I squeeze the potting mix with my hand water starts dripping from it even after an hour. I think this is too much of water. Can this result in root rot ? What alterations can I do to make a well draining but water retaining potting mix ?
Highly informative video👏👏👏. Can you please clarify whether light-weight or seeding mix can be continued even after the plant has grown and started flowering or do we have to change to garden soil + other ingredients ?
I like your videos for helping my roses. I also like your soil mixture video. My trouble is I have the worse draining soil issue and roses were planted there without any ground soil prep. My roots rot and the soil smells terrible, like rot. I am trying to dig out some of the soil and want to replace with one of your recipes. I see you have a few different ones. For replanting the rose bushes what one of the recipes do you recommend. I think I should add sand because as I mentioned my ground does not drain well at all. so frustrating!
renee wilson for roses they need well draining soil plus moisture retention but not compact soil for root development. You keep roses in max sunlight. 👍
@@GardenTips thanks for your help. I also have worm castings. Would that also be something to add in the ground to prevent disease on my roses? I am really hopeful to get my roses healthy again.
This is so helpful. There are many things that are not available such as VAM, Bone Meal, Blood Meal etc. However, accidentally, I found Rock Phosphate and Dolomite in a small store and have no idea how to use them. Can I add Rock Phosphate and Dolomite to soil? Or can you tell at which stage I must add these to plant or soil? Appreciate your comments and advice. Thanks

Hi. Most of the soil-less potting mixtures commercially available are 80% cocopeat. Just mix some 30% garden soil and some 20% compost to it. That should be fine.
Ser this potting mix is also use in all kind of plants like rose bongabella snake plants and others and it can also use in anykind of vigitable like eggplant tomato carrots pechay radish cucumber and more I wait for your replay thank you so much and God bless
If you are not using any other compost, about 30% compost is sufficient for the entire growth cycle till fruiting with an additional top up of a handful of it over the soil once 15-30 days.

Dear Sir, thank you so much for the information about universal potting soil mix ingredients. I live in south kolkata where the soil is glue type, therefore i mix sand for well drainage and have enough room to spread roots. If i mix garden soil 20% along with sand 20%, cocopeat 20% , vermicompost 30%, 1 tsp bonemeal and handful neem cake powder, is it ok? Waiting for your reply. Your blind fan Parichay.
Anything is fine. The ideal well draining soil is one which after thorough watering drains after 30 to 60 seconds. Water out of drain holes. You can vary the proportions depending on the plant type - like for succulents increase sand to 50% whereas for trees that need good anchorage make garden soil to 50%.
Can we use river sand (grey colour) which is found near construction site? If not, then what type of sand to use? Also can rice husk be used instead of cocopeat?

Hi. For leafy greens that’s fine but fit growing plants which require anchorage you need atleast 30 to 50% garden soil otherwise the plants won’t stand.
If using 20% river sand, do I distribute the remaining 10% evenly to the other ingredients respective to their percentages? Or keep it simple and just put more soil in it?
