Growing/Potting Mix

Urban Organics:
Sweet Peet is a naturally nutritious, unique and versatile organic material made from virgin wood products, manure and plant fibers. It derives its deep dark color from naturally occurring tannins. Sweet Peet is more absorbent than hardwood mulches, and it reduces nitrogen borrowing when tilled in and around root zones.
