Mixture in Bulbhouse pots

[Arda Takan]

 Sir I randomly looked the bulb log, and saw that all pots have little rocks in it. Does it contain any other things? What is the mixture you use?
Thanks.

Hello, Ardan. The bulbs in the pots are grown in a mixture of soil, sand and gravel ( small stones 2mm to 6mm) and all pots are given a topping of 2 to 3 cms of  larger gravel ( the little rocks you see on the surface)

See these logs to find more about compost for growing in pots....
