Question:

Can I plant carniverous plants/plant seeds in seed starting mix?

I want to repot a pot and plant some seeds, and the only quot;pure peat mossquot; I can find comes in a four cubic foot package; I need what would fit in a sandwich bag. :/The seed starting mix I have is peat moss with perlite or vermiculite. I know they are super fussy about pH, and I don't know how those additives would effect the mix over all. Anyone ever try this?

Answer:

wat was the question??lol

'Vermiculite' mica is formed by hydration from a type of mica, though i can't find anywhere it says for sure which type. /edit .. the mineral would still be Mica, probably Biotite or/ and Phlogopite type. the water in the mica is responsible for the swelling and expansion. whether the water is artificially introduced, or is a result of natural hydration (the first step towards it's breaking down into a kind of clay) i haven't been able to learn.
