What a ReadyGro Moisture Formula Pallet Actually Fills
Sixty-five bags at 1.75 cu ft each works out to roughly 113 cu ft, or about 4.2 cubic yards on one pallet. Botanicare rates a single bag at 2 five-gallon pots, 4 three-gallon or 12 one-gallon, so a full pallet fills 130 five-gallon containers. The mix is an 80/20 blend of coir and perlite with montmorillonite and yucca extract worked in.
Why Growers Choose the Moisture Formula Over an Aeration Mix
Moisture is the whole point of this blend. The coir fraction holds water so the media dries back slowly, which suits hand watering and longer intervals. Nothing is pre-charged, so feeding starts at transplant and stays under your control from the first watering. Rooms running frequent fertigation usually want the aeration blend instead, since a slow dry back and a short irrigation cycle work against each other.
Key Features
- 65 bags of 1.75 cu ft: About 113 cu ft, or 4.2 cubic yards, arriving as one pallet rather than sixty-five deliveries.
- Fills roughly 130 five-gallon pots: Working from Botanicare's own figure of two five-gallon containers per bag.
- 80/20 coir and perlite: The coir holds water while the perlite keeps enough air in the root zone to avoid souring.
- Montmorillonite and yucca extract: Clay minerals and a natural wetting agent, worked into the blend rather than added later.
- No pre-charge: Feeding starts at transplant, so nutrition is yours to set rather than something to work around.
