any more. In any event, I add micronutrients and nitrogen to help it
decompose.
Here's one very successful Azalea growers formula in 3 versions:
Wilder's Mix
STANDARD LIGHT AZALEA
5 gal. 2 1/2 gal. 5 gal. sand
2 1/2 gal. pearlite
5 gal. 5 gal. 5 gal. peat
2 tsp. 2 tsp. 1 tsp. hyd. lime
6 tsp. 6 tsp. 1 tsp. dolomite
4 tsp. 4 tsp. 2 tsp. soluable fert.
That ought to be complex enough to keep all the "mix addicts" happy.
If not, here's another one:
GRACE Nursery Rhododendron/Azalea Growing Medium index
Basic Mix
1 cu. yd. Concrete Sand
4 cu. yd. Ground Pinebark
Additives per 5 cu. ft. mix
5 lb. Slow Release Fertilizer
1 lb. Micronutrient Fertilizer
5 lb. Dolomitic Limestone
1 lb. Dry Wetting Agent
Have fun!!!!
