The four parts of this germination mix each fulfill a specific function in seed germination and early stage seedling growth.

Vermiculite ~ This is an expanded mica-like product that has impressive absorptive and water holding properties.

Perlite ~ Perlite is included specifically for it's ability to create the necessary air-spaces in germination mix that is so important for roots, without the danger of creating overly large spaces that can dry our seedling roots. It also has a good water holding capacity.

Coco coir ~ Coir is that backbone of structure in our mix, it is critical for holding the mix together, preventing compaction and collapse of the mix that would typically suffocate the seedlings roots. Once again this also has a great water holding capacity. Please take note of the difference between buffered and un-buffered coir.

Vermicasts ~ This is the "secret ingredient". Vermicasts provide the nutrition required for great seedling growth, it is a bacterial and fungal inoculation for the growing seedling and your soil, it has been found that vermicasts in seedling mix dramatically reduces the occurrence of damping off in seedlings.

The above mix will give you the best germination mix available.
