Hi all,
Starting my first microgrow this week and just need to get some soil. Cant post links so will post the description on two, can you let me know if either are good and which one iwll be better?
Tropic mix -
BUY 60 OR MORE BAGS OF TROPIC MIX FOR ONLY £8.95 EACH - A £1 SAVING PER UNIT!
Soil grower? Push growth & rooting with Tropic Mix. It’s the best soil mix to use.
It’s 40% coco, 60% peat and contains both calcium & magnesium at just the right ratio (2:1)
It’ll hold a lot of water, since it’s 60% fine grade Irish peat. For strong rooting, the mix is 40% high grade coco - ithis gives it a light & airy structure.
It’s easy to dispose of once used - there’s no perlite in Tropic Mix. There are no woody bits either, to help you avoid fungus gnats!
To prevent deficiencies & enhance nutrient uptake, Tropic Mix contains an actual magnesium limestone, a rich source of calcium & magnesium! The coco has been buffered with calcium, too! All Ca & Mg is released slowly so is available to plants over 9 months.
Forget about pH dips or spikes - the peat is treated with lime to raise the pH to 6.5 (ideal). As for the coco, it’s incredibly stable. The magnesium limestone balances your pH, too!
Overall, the CF is 14 (EC 1.4). You can transplant cuttings straight into the media without shocking or over fertilising plants.
• 60% fine grade Irish peat (holds a lot of water)
• 40% high quality coco (light & airy for rapid rooting)
• Medium fertilised, strength of CF 14 (EC 1.4)
• Highly refined with stable pH (peat treated with lime)
• Contains calcium and magnesium (at ideal ratio of 2:1)
• No perlite (easy to dispose of)
• No woody bits (avoid fungus gnats)
• Contains an actual magnesium limestone!(balances pH & adds calcium & magnesium)
• Cuttings can be transplanted straight into the media
• For first 2 weeks just add water, then on include nutrient too

Or this one -
Tropical Bat mix -
Soil grower? Push growth, intensify taste & drive rooting with Tropic Bat Mix.
It’s Tropic Mix that’s been fertilised with Bat Guano - one of the best sources of phosphorus there is.
You’ll get super strong roots and bigger fruit & flowers, thanks to all the phosphorus. You can expect fruit and flowers to taste nicer too.
The media is itself is 40% coco (airy for strong roots) and 60% peat (holds lots of water). There’s no perlite (easy to dispose of) and no woody bits (avoid fungus gnats)!
You don’t need to worry about pH…the peat's been treated with lime to get a pH of 6.5 (ideal). To further balance your pH Tropic Bat Mix contains an actual magnesium limestone!
To prevent deficiencies & enhance nutrient uptake, Tropic Bat Mix contains calcium & magnesium!
Since minerals are released very slowly, so you won’t burn roots. Better yet, calcium and magnesium is still available to plants for 9 months!
• 60% fine grade Irish peat (holds a lot of water)
• 40% high quality coco (light & airy for rapid rooting)
• Fertilised with Guanokalong Bat Guano (bat manure)
• Packed with phosphorus
• Ramps up rooting
• Enhances flower formation
• Highly refined with stable pH (peat is pH 6 + contains magnesium limestone)
• Helps prevent deficiencies & improve nutrient uptake (contains Ca & Mg)
• No perlite (easy to dispose of) or woody bits (avoid fungus gnats)
• Cuttings can be transplanted straight into the media
• For first 2 weeks feed just add water
