Which Soil Mixture to use for Raised Bed?

10 years ago

In my raised bed garden I was planning to use 3/4 "top soil" from a local gardening store (I have always been satisfied with past purchases from them), and 1/4 compost (specifically Wholly Cow).


What do people think about this? Should I add any sand? Peat moss?

I was recommended wholly cow but have read positive posts on here about mushroom compost too. Is there a significant difference?


some posts on here also say 25% organic matter may be too much. Would that include a product such as the compost I may buy?


any advice is welcomed.
