This is how I make potting soil:

Pick up 1 yard of potting soil from local wholesale nursery ( pine bark mulch, peat moss, perlite)

Add extra bag of perlite (4 cu ft I think)

Pick up 1 yard of organic top soil from second place. (Mostly compost mixed with native soil)

Mix in 25% partly decomposed pine bark fines (left over from a pallet I ordered 2 years ago)

Yield 2.5 yards : cost approx $200.00

I up potted from 3 to 10 gallon about 40 pots and potted to 3 gallon another 30 starters.

Pictured are about 180 pots with more to come. Hopefully I have enough soil.

Well i have to say that is a very impressive yield of soil and figs. Like how all your pots match too
Are you a nursery or just a figger ?

Thanks, Just a figger. I am a landscaper so I have almost unlimited access to any pots I need.

Very nice job!
Is the sprinkler how you water the figs?

Yes, I have 3 heads watering 45 min every other day. I wanted to do drip this year but the heads were so much easier.

Good job.

Aaron, you are hardcore! any updates on the unknowns you passed along? It would be great if you have a chance to visit the mother plants to see and document (and taste) the fruit.

Aaron - nice setup. I still owe you for all the pots :)

Nice work. So you mix the soil in the back of your truck? Not a bad idea.

Actually I just shovel it into a wheelbarrow. When I dump it out it gets mixed up enough. Just a little more hand mixing as i fill the pots.

I use Rubbermaid totes to dump soil components into... even when I've had access to a truck, I'd line the bed with them.  It minimizes the amount of shoveling I need to do when I get the stuff home.
