3. Components of a healthy soilNative garden soil – Garden soil or top soil. I’m not a fan of soilless garden mixtures. Native garden soil as long as it doesn’t have disease in it, is, I feel, very important to your garden.Compost or Organic Matter - High in Nitrogen and other minerals. Aids in drainage.Peat Moss – Helps with moisture and nutrient retention. It releases moisture to the plants as needed.Vermiculite – Acts like a sponge and holds onto moisture and nutrients.Perlite – Acts as an aerator and allows excess water to be released.
