- Gradual moisture release: the soil stays moist longer
- Does not compact and maintains its volume over time
- Ideal specific gravity for firmly anchoring the roots
- Does not stain surfaces and has no unpleasant odors
For an alternative lawn: work the soil to a depth of 10–15 cm, mix the topsoil into the top 8–10 cm (1 bag per m²), level with a rake, and plant the seedlings.
For pots, planters, and vegetable gardens: add fertilizer. Recommended doses per bag: 80–100 g of complete fertilizer or 100–150 g of pelleted manure.
20-liter bag. Approximately 1 is needed per m² of lawn or flowerbed.
What is our Organic All-Purpose Potting Mix?
The BIO BotanicalDryGarden All-Purpose Compost is a high-quality growing medium, developed to promote the growth of Mediterranean plants, groundcovers, and low-maintenance alternative lawns.
Its light, airy, and highly draining structure helps roots develop deep into the soil, making plants stronger and naturally more drought-resistant.
It is the compost we use in our gardens for planting our plants and establishing low-water-use lawns.
Why is it different from regular potting soil
An organic potting mix for many uses
Gardens
Perfect for creating an alternative lawn without deep soil cultivation. If the soil is poor, supplement with fertilizer.
Potted plants and planters
Ideal for terraces and planters, where a lightweight and well-draining substrate is needed. Here, adding fertilizer is recommended.
Vegetable gardens
Offers a balanced substrate that promotes root development and healthy, steady growth. Supplement with fertilizer for more abundant harvests.
How do you use it to plant an alternative lawn?
- Work the soil deeply, to a depth of at least 10–15 cm.
- Spread the BIO BotanicalDryGarden Compost and mix it into the top 8–10 cm of soil. We recommend one bag per square metre.
- Level the surface and plant the seedlings: use a rake to prepare the area.
BIO BotanicalDryGarden potting soil vs. conventional potting soils
The differences you can see over time, in the garden and in pots.
Doubts? Questions?
For an alternative lawn or a flowerbed, we recommend 1 bag of 20 liters per m², mixed into the top 8-10 cm of soil.
For pots, planters and vegetable patches, yes: 80-100 g of complete fertilizer or 100-150 g of pelleted manure per bag. In the garden, it is only necessary if the soil is poor.
Common potting soils are almost entirely peat and retain too much water. Pumice is a mineral component that improves drainage and aeration: for this reason, it is suitable for Mediterranean plants and alternative lawns.
