And in that, it is really beneficial to continually be working with that soil... Those are cheaply built 8 year old boxes that probably need rebuilt (or they will soon) but the soil in them is priceless... I think you will find your will richen and mature as well... Good luck !

Vermiculite is not quite the same. Yes it makes a soil more airy but at the end of the day it’s a clay, absorbs water while perlite does not( had 50 lb bags of both get rained on, your not moving vermiculite easily) & it will loose texture in the long run. Not what you want if you want soils to dry out between waterings say for cacti.

I had a lot of fun getting the soil just like yours, took a lot of perlite to get the soil just right, but i'm confident i'm going to have a nice carrot crop this summer.

The good thing is that it's acidic and therefore some pests do not like to get neat it. Oak leaves and pine needles are also acidic and cam be gathered locally. I used to live near a peat bog so it was a little more affordable, but still is more money than resourcing pine needles or oak leaves and shred them up.

I've been gardening 54 years but never did any root crops until now. This video was very informative. Thank you. Now I will try to find your other video you kept referring to so I can watch it also.
