Custom soil blends

High Quality, Nutrient Rich Custom Soil Blends

Finding perfectly balanced soil can be tricky, especially if you’re growing plants with specific needs. That’s why custom soil blending is so useful. We can create custom soil mix varieties designed for various plant life by combining different soil types, nutrients, and amendments.

What Are Custom Soil Blends?

Custom soil blends are soil mixtures created by humans (rather than naturally occurring soil) to cater to different types of plant growth. Raised bed garden mix, potting soil, and turf soil are all examples of soil blends, but you can get as specific as you need to with custom soil requirements.

How Does Custom Soil Blending Work?

The first step in creating a custom soil mix is identifying its purpose. Are you planning to grow a home vegetable garden? Do you work in commercial landscaping and need soil for flowers and grass? Your location, climate, and the type of plants you want to grow will all factor into custom soil blending.

Once we know what the soil will be used for, we can create a custom soil mix designed to best nurture that specific plant growth.

1. Difference Between Custom Blends and Standard Soil

The main difference between custom soil blending and regular soil is the composition. Standard soil or topsoil is designed for general use, while custom soil blends are created for very specific growth environments.

2. Composition of Custom Soil Blends

Custom soil blends often contain a mixture of ingredients including sand, peat moss, perlite, limestone, sulfur, organic matter, clay, loamy soil, and topsoil.

3. Organic Matter in Custom Blends

Organic matter is an extremely helpful ingredient for custom soil blends. Garden soil and ornamental plant soil benefit from organic matter such as manure, roots, bark, earthworm castings, and compost.

4. Minerals in Custom Soil Blends

Biochar is a specialized material made from burned organic materials. A biochar soil amendment can help with water retention, salinity, carbon storage, and more.

5. Living Organisms in Soil Blends

Living organisms help recycle soil nutrients, foster decomposition, and improve soil structure. Earthworms, insects, bacteria, algae, fungi, nematodes, and mites are all examples of living organisms that can be included in custom soil blends.

Types of custom soil blends

Custom soil blends vary widely depending on their designated use.

Each custom soil mix contains a unique mixture of ingredients. At Green Soils Company, we specialize in creating custom soil blends for individualized solutions. Simply let us know what kind of plants you hope to grow, and we’ll engineer a custom mix just for you.

Potting Soil Mix

Potting soil blends are used for potted plants like house plants, succulents, and flowers. Potting mixes may include more porous amendments for drainage, such as perlite.

Garden Soil

Custom soil blends for gardens are great for growing fruits and vegetables. Garden soil typically contains topsoil, compost, and organic matter.

Acidic Soil Blends

Some plants grow best in more acidic soil. Blueberries, hydrangeas, and azaleas all benefit from acidic custom soil blends that contain sulfur and peat moss.

Orchid Potting Mix

Orchid custom soil blends are unique because they mainly feature bulky materials like bark, stones, and charcoal. Orchid mixes don’t contain traditional loamy soil and can also be used for tree ferns and other semi-epiphytic plants.

Seed Starter Soil Blends

Farmers, community gardeners, and home gardeners often use a seed starter custom soil mix to help foster new germination. Seed starters often include peat moss, compost, vermiculite, and perlite. Seed starters are also great for cover crops.

High Altitude Soil Mix

In high-altitude regions, plants typically require more nutrients, organic matter, and water-retaining elements like clay and vermiculite. pH levels and exchangeable potassium also decrease in higher altitudes, so these soil blends often contain fertilizer and sulfur.

Green Soils amended our soil on-site, and the quality was exceptional—much better than bringing in new topsoil.
