Brassica Seedlings - Compost Type?
« on: April 06, 2013, 11:33 »
Hi All
Is there a specific growing medium/compost I should starting off my brassica seedlings in?
Using MPC at the moment and its rather acidic I think and they are not doing too well :(

Any advice would be great.

Thanks
Mattie

I always use MCP to start my seedlings off, I only add lime to the soil when transplanting, If you think it is the compost however you could try a very little sprinkling of lime, but it is probably the weather rather than the compost.
