The Foundation for Strong, Healthy Seedlings

Starting seeds successfully requires more than just dirt and water—it demands a carefully balanced growing medium that supports delicate roots while delivering essential nutrients at the most critical stage of plant development. Our Seed Starter Potting Mix combines time-tested organic ingredients with living soil biology to give your seeds everything they need to germinate strong and grow vigorous.

Why This Mix Works

Traditional seed starting mixes are sterile and lifeless. Ours is alive. We've enriched this blend with worm castings and mycorrhizae—beneficial fungi that colonize young roots and dramatically improve nutrient uptake from day one. This biological advantage helps seedlings establish faster, develop stronger root systems, and transition to the garden with less transplant shock.

The base of premium sphagnum peat moss and coconut coir creates an ideal moisture balance: moisture-retentive enough to keep seeds consistently hydrated during germination, yet airy enough to prevent damping off and root rot. Perlite ensures excellent drainage and root aeration, while ground limestone balances pH for optimal nutrient availability.

What's Inside

• Sphagnum Peat Moss – Superior water retention and aeration
• Perlite – Lightweight volcanic glass for drainage and air pockets
• Ground Limestone – Natural pH balancer
• Worm Castings – Gentle, slow-release nutrition with beneficial microbes
• Mycorrhizae – Root-colonizing fungi for enhanced nutrient absorption
• Yucca Extract – Natural wetting agent for consistent moisture distribution

How to Use

1. Prepare Your Mix – Moisten the potting mix thoroughly before filling seed trays or containers. It should be damp but not waterlogged.
2. Sow Your Seeds – Follow seed packet instructions for depth and spacing. Lightly firm the mix over seeds for good seed-to-soil contact.
3. Maintain Moisture – Keep the surface consistently moist (not soggy) until germination. A spray bottle works well for gentle watering without displacing seeds.
4. After Germination – Once seedlings emerge, allow the surface to dry slightly between waterings while keeping the root zone moist. This encourages deeper root growth.

Perfect For

• Starting vegetable and flower seeds indoors
• Microgreens and sprout production
• Propagating cuttings
• Starting herbs and medicinal plants
• Growing seedlings for transplanting

The Revival Difference

We believe healthy plants start with healthy soil—even in a seed tray. While most commercial seed starters are sterile and require immediate fertilization, our blend works with nature to establish beneficial relationships between plants and soil life from the very beginning. The result? Seedlings that are stronger, more resilient, and better prepared to thrive when you transplant them into your garden.
