Our Formula

Perlite: 1 part

Pumice: 1 part

Orchid Bark: 1 part

Coco Coir: 1 part

Horticultural Charcoal: 1/4th part

Worm Casting: 1/4th part

Mosquito Bits: 1/8th part

Hydroguard Bacillus Root Inoculant 1/2 oz per 4lbs



Why do we use those ingredients? 
Perlites and orchid barks will help to aerate the soil, creating small air pockets. Those pockets will provide oxygens for the roots. Also, orchid barks will be the material for the roots to cling on and grow stronger.
Coco coir is a magical ingredient that not only act as a moisture retainer but also keeps the soil structure airy and well-draining. Because of its ability to hold on to water, it is able to retain the diluted nutrients that plants can use later on.
Worm casting is an organic fertilizer to help enrich nutrients for the mix since most of the ingredients don't have much nutrient value.
Horticultural charcoal will help eliminate and reduce the growth of bad fungi.
Mosquito bits will minimize the growth of fungus gnats by killing the lavas.
Lastly,  Hydroguard Bacillus Root Inoculant helps convert soil waste into nutrients for the roots.

We love and have personally grown all of our plants. We will pack them as carefully as possible to minimize damages during transit. However, please understand the risks of shipping live plants. No refund or replacement will be issues once the plants leave our greenhouse.

There are so many factors that play a role during the transit process that can affect the plants such as the weather, how the carrier handles the packages, and how long the plants are in transit, delays, etc. Please do your own research and check the weather before you make a purchase. We DO NOT want to be held responsible for, but not limited to, any damages, broken leaves at the hands of shippping carriers. The plants will be in a dark box for approximately 2-7 days so please expect to have 1-2 leaves falling off as plants acclimate to their new homes. But they will get back up and grow more new leaves in no time.

If the plants are shipped in pots, please DO NOT repot them for at least 10 days. This is important! They have been through a long shipping journey. Please don't put more stress on them by repotting immediately.
