Soil Mix Advice

Hi guys,

I need help with a good soil mix. It has been over 2 years since i last grew for the first time, and I have since relocated to Asia from UK. I need help with a good soil mix ratio. Growing medium is hard to come by in this country, but I managed to get the following items.

All I have managed to get a hold of are:

• Horti Seed & Potting Mix (A soil-less mix which contains Vermiculite and Peat Moss with fertilizer up to 6 weeks)
  • Description of soil from website:
    • Seed & Potting Mix is a soil-less mixture used for raising seeds and striking cuttings. It is free from weed seeds and diseases and contains all the ingredients for fast and uniform germination and assures strong root development. It also contains vermiculite and peat moss to prevent drying out. Suitable for germinating all types of seed.
• Horti Soil (Packet says it is "A natural product of humus which is made by the maturisation and intense bacteria action of a mixture of organic matter, peat moss, medium loam and supplemented with inorganic superphosphate, muriate of potash, limeston, essential trace elements and fungicide)
  • Description of soil from website:
    • Horti Soil is an economical and all purpose potting mix for potting and re-potting on most indoor plants and outdoor plants, like shrubs and ornamentals. Its carefully balanced weed- and disease- free ingredients ensure good drainage, moisture retention and healthy plant growth. It is suitable for most plants though special Horti mixes are available for seeds, african violets and orchids. It contains added fertilizers for strong growth in the first few weeks.

I have also managed to get several soil amendments:

• Perlite
• Vermiculite
• Peat Pellets
• Garden Lime (Agricultural Grade Calcium Hydroxide)
• Dehydrated Sphagnum Moss
• Multi-purpose compost (with High Potash content)
• Pure Natural Organic Humus Compound
• Multi-purpose Earthworm's Vermicast (Nitrogen 0.93%, Phosphorous 0.97%, Potassum 11.77%, MgO 0.16%)
• Blood and Bone (Nitrogen 7%, Phosphorous 5%)
• Hydroleca/Clay Pebbles

I plan on using Bio Bizz's Nutrients (Bio Grow and Bio Bloom) which i brought back from the UK with me.

My proposed soil mix are:
Horti Soil - 25%
Horti Seed & Potting Mix [soil-less mix] - 25%
Perlite - 15%
Vermiculite - 15%
Blood and Bone - 10%
Multi-purpose Earthworm's Vermicast - 10%
Garden Lime (Agricultural Grade Calcium Hydroxide) - a small cup

What do you guys think? also, I am not quite sure about the Garden Lime (Agricultural Grade Calcium Hydroxide).. Is it the same as Dolomite Lime?

Please help a fellow grower out.

It sounds okay to me. Try it out. What don't kill them will make them stronger!
