Composition and Ingredients

Sunshine Mix #4 is a dynamic hydroponics growing medium that will help plants thrive in your hydroponics system; specifically made from organic material to enhance the growth of your plants.

• Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss: Sphagnum moss, when compared to other types of moss, retains water relatively well and provides the rate of acidity appropriate to help grow strong roots.
• Coarse Perlite: Perlite raises soil aeration and helps water to move in the mix, reducing the chances of root rot.
• Dolomite Lime: Adjusts soil PH so plants can get the most from the nutrients present.
• Organic Wetting Agent: This material enhances the entry of water into the ground and remedies the creation of drying patches in the ground.
