Ok, so commercial potting soil (even tho organic) has a bit of a tendency to be a bit too hot. I get burn it sometimes, and pH problems on others, and each bag is different, and I just don't f-ing like it cause I'm a control freak and I want to have each and every detail under my control, including soil...
Soooooo I gotta make my own somehow. Now how do I go about this? Basically I want a 'base' to which I can add other amendments to... What do I use? Bear in mind I live in South Africa so some things MAY not be available to me. Perlite for instance I have to order online if I want it. What substitutes are there to perlite btw?
