🌱 Living Organic Soil – Pre-Fertilized

Biologically Active, Nutrient-Rich Soil for Strong, Healthy Plants

Our Pre-Fertilized Living Soil is more than just a growing medium—it's a thriving, living ecosystem. Specially designed for organic cultivation, this biologically active soil is loaded with premium organic amendments, selected to enhance soil structure, stimulate microbial life, and deliver a balanced nutritional profile from day one.

Crafted through years of hands-on experience and field testing, this soil is formulated to work seamlessly with our full lineup of organic topdresses and liquid nutrient blends, giving your plants the strong, clean foundation they need to thrive.


🌿 Key Features

  • Biochar-Enriched for Microbial Habitat 🦠
    Biochar offers a porous structure that houses beneficial microbes, helping to improve nutrient retention and promote overall plant health.

  • Enhanced Aeration for Vigorous Roots 🌬️
    With pumice and perlite in the mix, the soil remains light and breathable—ensuring optimal oxygen flow to root zones and preventing compaction.

  • Sufficient Initial Nutrition
    Pre-fertilized to support your plants through the first 1–4 weeks of growth (depending on pot size), allowing you to transplant directly and focus on healthy development from the start.

  • Synergistic Microbial Activity
    Rich in composted ingredients and diverse minerals, this blend fosters a vibrant soil food web that helps cycle nutrients naturally and supports resilient, high-performing plants.


☀️ How to Use

  1. Fill your container with Living Soil.

  2. Plant your seedling or transplant directly into the soil.
    We recommend applying Optimize Organics AMF Root Inoculant at transplant time for plants that benefit from mycorrhizal relationships. This includes most vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
    (Note: Brassicas and a few other plant families do not typically form mycorrhizal associations.)

  3. Water as needed to maintain consistent moisture. The pre-fertilization supports your plants for the first 1–4 weeks of growth, depending on pot size.

  4. Supplement with our organic fertilizers as your plants progress into later growth stages to ensure sustained health and productivity.

  5. Maintain proper airflow and lighting to support robust growth and prevent common issues associated with inadequate ventilation and light.
