Abstract
Soilless potting mixes are used for production of organic bedding plants, vegetable transplants and container-grown ornamentals. By avoiding the use of topsoil, the risk of diseases like damping-off may be reduced. Soil-less mixes should be formulated to have optimal physical and chemical properties that promote germination and healthy seedling growth. This fact sheet describes qualities, potential issues, ingredients, and testing of organic potting mixes.
