Mineralized Soil

Post by Spine »

I'm putting together my big plant tank. I want to use mineralized soil(Seanstrate) How much soil(bags) would you recommend for a 24x86in. footprint.

Thanks

I would start with one bag and if it turns out okay, then get a couple of more. I bought several bags of top soil this year, and they did not work out. One was like a bag of mulch almost and the other was like a bag of mud, that dried into a light brown clay patty after trying to mineralize it. I'm going to have to actually use them in the yard. :x

I used 2 1/2 bags of dirt in my 180g, Kevin, I'd figure on 3 bags of topsoil.
