The Bomb is a class-defying mix that some would call soil and others would call soilless media, yet everyone knows it will Make Your Plants Explode! We have four different variants in the Bomb Line to fit your growing style. All of these mixes perform quite similarly, will grow at relatively the same rate and have similar amount of nutrients and amendments built into them. The only thing that is different about each of the four ”Bombs” is the base. Original Bomb has an all Coco coir base. Sphagnum Bomb™ has an all Sphagnum peat base. Let us explain what is different about these bases. While Coco is a little easier to hydrate, Sphagnum makes a more cohesive root ball. The 50/50 blend offers the best of both. If you don’t have a preference, choose Bomb 50/50. The fourth type is called Raised Bed Mix and is just like Bomb 50/50 but we swap the perlite with organic rice hulls. This works great in raised beds and landscape applications where clients don’t want to see the white perlite specks or when extra water retention is desired. We do add a bit more nitrogen to Raised Bed Mix to offset the additional carbon from the rice hulls.
