Introduction

When you want a growing medium that works anywhere — beds, bags, containers, trenches, greenhouses, or indoor gardens — Kings Mix delivers. Developed to simplify garden setup without compromising performance, Kings Mix blends the best qualities of coco and peat into a well-aerated medium that strikes an ideal balance for immediate planting.

This mix was created for growers who want versatility and consistency, while still benefiting from a light nutrient charge that supports early growth.

What Is Kings Mix?

Kings Mix® is a thoughtfully designed coco + peat based planting medium that’s ready to use straight from the bag. With a combination of structural ingredients, light natural amendments, and high porosity, it suits nearly every cultivation style.

It was Royal Gold’s first product to include peat moss, answering the needs of both:

  • Traditional peat growers
  • First time Coco growers or Growers Curious about Coco
  • Loyal coco users wanting peat integration

It’s forgiving, adaptable, and especially useful in climates or systems where controlled dry-back matters.

Kings Mix is made from:

  • Coco Fiber 
  • Perlite
  • Aged Forest Products 
  • Sphagnum Peat Moss 
  • Coco Chips
  • Dolomite (as a pH Adjuster) 
  • Fish Bone Meal 
  • Bat Guano 
  • Feather Meal 
  • Kelp Meal
  • Rock Phosphate

This blend offers optimum structure, moderate water retention, ideal rootzone aeration, and a light nutrient profile.

Why Growers Love Kings Mix

Built for Convenience

Kings Mix is a truly all-purpose planting solution. Just open, fill your container (or plant directly in our 3-cubic foot, plant-in-bag!) water in, and grow.

Great balance between Aeration + Water Retention

Coco, peat, aged forest products, perlite, and coco chips create the ideal structure for:

  • Fast drainage
  • Steady moisture
  • Strong early root development

Coco Chips (croutons) help maintain even moisture in this quick draining mix, for the perfect blend of aeration and water holding.

Light Nutrient Charge

Kings Mix offers natural nutrition from aged forest products, traditional amendments, and organic meals.
It provides 1–2 weeks of plant support, after which you can begin your feeding program of choice — or start immediately if desired.

Versatile Across Environments

Because of its aeration and quick-drying nature, Kings Mix excels in:

  • Cool climates
  • Coastal regions
  • High elevation / short seasons
  • Spring + fall planting

This makes it adaptable to greenhouses, outdoor beds, indoor gardens, and light-dep cultivation.
