How to make your own Potting Mix for a Vegetable Garden?

Believe me, it's not rocket science. You can do it if I can do it. While you always have the option to buy the ready made potting soil from market/online stores, here is what I would like you to try. Its my recipe!

Mix below ingredients in the proportion mentioned, and wait for the results…

• 3 parts Garden Soil (You can take any soil even reuse from old pots)
• 2 parts Coco Peat/Peat Moss
• 1 part Compost or Vermicompost 
• 1 part Manure like Cow Dung and /or Goat manure
• 1 part Neem Cake / Mustard cake / Bone Meal 
• 1 part Vermiculite/Perlite or Rice husks (if available locally) - This is added to make soil light in weight for container gardening so as to make the pots light in weight
• 3 tablespoons Dalchini Powder - It has antifungal properties and it protects your veggies and plants)

The above can work for any type of container pots from My Eden or even otherwise. Depending on the plant type, you can slightly increase or decrease the amount of Vermiculite/Perlite. For example, if you are having a succulent plant then increase the amount of Vermiculite or Perlite. If you like the results, do come back and comment.
