My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Soil Type for Container Veggies....

18 years ago

Can I still use Mir Gro Potting Mix to sow my veggies (if I decide to do some containers of lettuce and maybe something else?).... or do I need a special mix of soils that drain a bit better? Thanks for any help
