Re: Recommended soil for growing fruit and vegetables?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @lulu1991. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about garden soil.

Here's an informative article that is worth reading through on How to choose the right soil for your plants. I'd suggest you invest in some premium soil like the Scotts Osmocote 25L Tomato, Vegetable & Herb Premium Potting Mix and Scotts Osmocote 25L Citrus & Fruit Premium Potting Mix. You can go for more budget mixes, but the cheaper the soil is, the more effort it is to keep the plants alive. Quality soil is well worth the investment, as it has added nutrients and wetting agents.

 

What types of vegetables and fruits are you planning on growing?

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
