1 Comment To "Recomend A Planting Mix For Growing Tomato In Pots."

We do not recommend specific brands. The potting soil, simply, serves as a base with drainage. This is because potting mixes contain perlite, peat, and other quick draining materials that will help lighten up the compost.
Your compost should be a good organic mix from a trusted source.
