How to choose ready-made soil for seedlings: look at the composition and quality
As spring approaches, a gardener has two options: creating his own soil for seedlings or purchasing ready-made soil.
Many people choose the second option, as it is much simpler – there is no need to carry out a lot of preparatory procedures.
For example, if a summer resident makes the soil himself, then he has to disinfect, mix and loosen the soil, and this is far from the entire list of tasks.
Let's pay attention to the advice of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and scientist-agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh regarding the purchase of land for seedlings.
Features of purchasing ready-made soil for seedlings
In most cases, the store shelf contains deoxidized peat with sand and fertilizers, but such soil is more suitable for growing seedlings at the initial stage.
But peat does not contain nutrients that are important for growing plants.
Therefore, it is advisable to transplant grown plants into other soil that contains vermicompost.
