Diy soil recipes

So just to cut to the chase. Buying many bags of soil gets pricey when doing raised beds, or lots of container gardening. Also topsoil may very in nutrition and composition. By making your own mix you can insure you get the best quality soil for your specific needs. I don't use an exact recipe yet because I go off of how the soil feels and how it holds water.

1 large bag of sphagnum peat moss.
Perlite
Vermiculite
bone meal
Two drops of dish soap for wetting agent
Dolomite lime
Builders sand
