This is sorta what I do but on a larger scale. I buy a truckload of compost from a local company for much better deal than bags. I mix everything on a large tarp. Good video. Thanks for sharing.
I've been extremely lazy, I mostly use fine wood mulch compost (aka soil conditioner) for everything. Its far more on the side of fine wood mulch than compost but it drains extremely well, and it breaks down slowly over time into compost.
Soil conditioner is great for so many reasons glad you are using it. There are aspects of "less is more" a quick solution that works well saves time in the end which is a huge win.
hey, phil. thanks for your videos! in your greenhouse, how many additional degrees does the insulation board provide to warm up the room during winter? I’m thinking of using it inside a makeshift cold box for potted citrus trees.
It's really helpful, especially if you have any leaks. before any additional insulation I had about a 15 degree differential, but with the insulation and an additional layer of polyethylene cover it worked out to about a 30 degree differential. It was definitely a contributing factor.
@@Philsfigs They warn about it online and I am starting to suspect that in my soils and possibly is harming my fig plant! The soil becomes very granular and dry and maybe less able to hold water. They are not native and they also claim to be especially bad for annuals.

Awesome. The larger the scale the better the deal. if you have the time and the space to do it that way its the best option.
This is SO helpful 🙌 but also now I kinda want to up pot all my containers and redo the soil 😅
Glad it's helpful, Thank you Gina! Haha I'm sure you'll up pot your fig trees soon.

Did you ever have to deal with jumping worms? They look like earthworms but they are not and are very wiggly--like crazy wiggly!
oh wow jumping worms?! I haven't heard of those, but it makes sense I've definitely seen something similar on my earthworms
