Lawn Soil Used Instead Of Vege Soil Promix Brand

Question

I made a mistake and bought premix lawn soin instead of vegetable soil mix. I didn’t notice until after everything was planted. Will this cause a problem with my veggie garden?

Answer 1

It won't harm anything, but you will want to test it for deficiencies. It will not contain enough phosphorus and potassium for vegetables, but this can be, easily, supplemented.
