Blond sphagnum peat, compost, coconut coir, perlite, and a blend of organic and mineral amendments. Recommended for cell-tray seedlings, but not for soil-blocking. Warms more quickly and drains better than Fort Vee, but might need additional fertilizing prior to transplanting (try top dressing with Compost Plus). For best results, use within 6 months of purchase, and store in a covered, cool, shaded area. Also available in 2 cubic yard totes. MOFGA.
