Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to add any other soil or fertilizer? No — OC Farms Vegetable Mix is a complete ready-to-use growing medium. Simply fill your pot and plant directly. The mix contains everything your vegetables need for the first 45-60 days of growth.

Can I use this for growing vegetables on my terrace? Absolutely — it is lightweight, perfectly draining and specially designed for container and terrace vegetable gardening.

What size grow bag should I use for tomatoes and chillies? We recommend a minimum 12×12 inch grow bag for tomatoes and chillies. Fill completely with OC Farms Vegetable Mix for best results.

How is this different from the General Purpose Soilless Mix? The Vegetable Mix is specifically optimised for edible plants — the NPK Microbial Consortia and Neem Cake ratios are adjusted to support vegetable growth cycles, faster fruiting and natural pest protection for food crops.

How often should I water plants grown in this mix? Check moisture daily by inserting your finger 1 inch into the mix. Water when it feels dry at that depth. In summer water once daily, in winter every 2-3 days. Never let it become completely dry or waterlogged.

Can I reuse this mix after harvest? Yes — after harvest, refresh the mix by adding OC Farms Vermicompost and Bio-Booster before the next planting cycle.
