You mentioned it in another post (this is the soil mix for square foot gardening in case someone wonders) that you would post it. Do you use the new mix or the old mix? I never liked the new mix that was a bag of this and a bag of that. Do you have the recipe for the old mix because I don't know where my old book is?

We're getting ready to fill our new raised beds and I'm trying to figure out the best/most foolproof way to get vermiculite, peat moss, and compost in there. The beds will be 4x8 and this is our first time (hopefully) doing this right. I see we need coarse vermiculite. How else do we make sure we get everything how it needs to be?
