Pam asks Annie:
Q Do you have a recipe for potting mix that you can share? I looked for the Sunshine mix you mentioned and can’t find anywhere to purchase it locally. Plus I was a little scared at the thought of ordering a “bale” since I have no idea how much that is in kitchen-measurement terms.
A A bale of the Sunshine mix is 2.8 cubic feet. I’m not great with math, but Google tells me that that equates to approximately 7.5 gallons. Personally, I do not have a recipe. I use a commercial mix that I cut anywhere from 60/40 to 50/50 with perlite.
I hope this helps,
Annie :-)

Annie, I just ordered a bale of the Sunshine Mix 1 from Planet Natural. It was on sale for 39.95. However shipping was expensive.
