Hello,
I live in a small town in portugal and am trying to experiment with a few trees to expand my collection, so i have been rooting from cuttings a lot of trees that are planted locally here.
I have gather cuttings from ficus carica, 2 variaties of plum fruit trees, pear trees, pomegranate, olive trees, lemon and orange trees aswel.
Growing them on the ground is not an option for me so I have been researching to come up with a good soil mix to grow these on once they get an established root base.
What I could find in local nurseries are : Perlite, vermiculute, pine bark, LECA, many times of compost and I can also crush clay bricks.
Do you think that using a combination of these materials would be a suitable soil mix to grow these for a few years?
