A list of all our soil inputs and what each one functionally does in this mix. Our goal is to make sure you not only know what we use in our soil but WHY we use it.
ALL INPUTS ARE APPROVED FOR ORGANIC USE
Base Soil Mix:
Professional Grade Sphagnum Peat Moss
- Provides excellent water holding capacity while maintaining aeration
- Helps achieve an ideal water-to-air ratio
- Naturally high cation exchange capacity (CEC), improving nutrient retention
Biochar, Pumice, Vermiculite & Pine Fines
- Improve aeration, drainage, and resistance to compaction
- Enhance moisture retention without sacrificing oxygen availability
- Increase overall CEC and support long term soil structure
- Promote microbial habitat and biological activity
High Quality Worm Castings & Plant Based Compost
- Introduce a diverse and resilient microbial ecosystem
- Supply slow release nutrients and stable organic matter
- Improve aggregation, soil structure, and water holding capacity
Organic Fertilizer Inputs
Wollastonite
- Provides plant available silica
- Assists with soil pH management and structural plant strength
Gypsum
- Excellent source of calcium and sulfur
- Improves soil aggregation and nutrient availability without affecting pH
Calphos
- Slow release phosphorus source
- Also supplies slow release calcium for root development and structural integrity
Granular Mycelium Extract
- Nitrogen rich with additional phosphorus, potassium, and chitin
- Contains plant stimulating enzymes
- Predictable nutrient release and strong biological stimulation
Bone Meal
- More immediate phosphorus source with supplemental nitrogen
- Contributes calcium for root and cell wall development
Alfalfa Meal
- Slow release nitrogen source containing potassium and trace minerals
- Naturally rich in triacontanol (a powerful growth stimulant)
- Contains saponins that support biological balance and plant resilience
Perfect Blend
- Balanced, moderate release, chelated nutrient source
- pH stabilized and biologically active
- Builds soil structure and supports microbial function
Insect Frass
- Unique microbial profile distinct from compost and worm castings
- High in chitin, stimulating plant immune responses
- Balanced nutrient contribution and biological activation
Malted Barley
- Enzyme rich biological stimulant
- Feeds soil microbes and accelerates nutrient cycling
Soybean Meal
- High quality, plant based nitrogen source
- Moderate and predictable release rate
Potassium Sulfate
- Clean, effective source of potassium
- Supports flowering, fruiting, and stress tolerance
Fish Bone Meal
- Phosphorus rich with nitrogen and trace minerals
- Used sparingly to minimize sodium and chloride inputs
Crustacean Meal
- Medium release nitrogen, phosphorus, calcium, and chitin
- Chitin enhances plant immune responses and pest resistance
- Applied conservatively to avoid excess Sodium and Chloride
Kelp Meal
- Broad spectrum trace minerals and natural growth hormones
- Supports stress tolerance and overall plant vigor
- Used sparingly to limit sodium and chloride contribution
Magnesium Sulfate
- Provides readily available magnesium and sulfur
- Supports chlorophyll production and enzymatic function
Fish Hydrolysate
- Rich in proteins, amino acids, oils, and enzymes
- Stimulates microbial activity and root development
Trace Mineral Mix
- Iron
- Manganese
- Copper
- Zinc
- Boron
- Ensures complete micronutrient availability for different plant processes.
Riverview Root Fuel
- Proprietary blend of quillaja powder, yucca powder, soapwort powder, licorice root powder, aloe vera powder, coconut powder, kelp powder, and fulvic acid
- Rich in botanical biostimulants and natural saponins
- Promotes aggressive root growth, improved nutrient uptake, and uniform moisture distribution throughout the soil profile
