Summary:
We began the season by sowing rare heirloom seeds in plug trays, varieties chosen for flavor, diversity, and genetic richness. Our mix of worm castings, coco fiber, soil, and vermiculite creates a balanced growing medium designed for both nutrition and drainage. With heating pads supporting germination, we’re creating the conditions for strong, early roots.
In design, we do the same: build the right foundation early, and the system thrives long after installation.
notes:
Heating pads are a tiny microclimate, engineered for germination.
Just like a planting detail, treat the soil blend as a specification, not an afterthought.
Vermiculite holds water, coco fiber improves structure, worm castings provide nutrients.
Heirlooms = Biodiversity & Resilience
Monocultures are fragile, heirlooms preserve regional and cultural history.
