| Well I just registered to the forum after reading and reading... And reading. It seems not a lot of growers occupy my area (little rock, Arkansas). I've learned of so many types of soil mixtures for containerized JMs. My question though being- is there any professional advice on a soil recipe for containers in my area... My very humid and hot and crazy weather region.
I have many maples right now in a mix I have made including: 6 parts sifted pine bark mulch 4 parts expanded shale 3 parts earthworm castings 2 parts sphagnum peat moss Used coffee as top dressing a couple times a month Oh and a lil perlite to taste... |

| The "Container Gardening" forum here has more useful information on that topic than anywhere else on earth. Seriously :) |
