Search for 5:1:1 mix details.

JohnMich · January 17, 2009

I read somewhere that there was a basic 5:1:1 soilless mix which would be suitable for as a starter for a rank beginner at SWC gardening like me. I am starting on Ray's earthtainer system (brilliant!) and am now organising the beg, borrowing and stealing of components.

Could someone point me in the right direction please? I have tried googling and searching but google gets me 5 1 1 fertiliser and search here a squillion replies!

In case its relevant our climate in SE Queensland equates to Hawaii.(Beautiful one day, perfect the next!)

Regards, John
PS: This is a great site and I can already taste SWC tomatoes.
