Developed through a unique collaboration with\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/kisorganics.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKiS Organics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ein the USA, this soil represents over two years of laboratory analysis, field trials, and formulation refinement. Designed specifically for Australian conditions, it combines agronomic precision with a strong focus on microbial life to deliver a soil that performs reliably across multiple crop cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike many so-called “living soils” that are simply compost-heavy mixes with generic amendments, this formula is grounded in scientific testing and targeted nutrient balancing. Each component—peat, scoria, perlite, compost, and biochar—was tested for purity, nutrient content, and heavy metals before inclusion. Mineral sufficiency and nutrient ratios were guided by analysis from EAL Laboratories, Logan Labs, and KiS Organics agronomic services, ensuring that the soil reaches well-defined nutrient indices for premium performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a nutrient-dense, biologically active growing media with excellent water-holding capacity, optimal air-filled porosity, and a balanced mineral profile. These physical and chemical properties make it highly forgiving to different irrigation approaches, including heavier watering techniques, while still maintaining oxygen availability in the root zone. For growers using automated irrigation or\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/product\/blumat-digital-moisture-meter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003emoisture sensors such as Blumat\u003c\/a\u003e, the soil’s consistency helps achieve ideal moisture management for high-yielding plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery batch of Easy As Organics Living Soil KiS Mix is manufactured in state-of-the-art continuous line production facilities, where strict quality control ensures precision blending, structural consistency, and nutrient uniformity. This allows growers to expect the same high performance, bag after bag, season after season. Certification under the AS3743 Premium Potting Mix Standard guarantees compliance with national requirements for pH, electrical conductivity (EC), particle size distribution, and transportability across state lines. For commercial operations and regional growers, this means the soil can be delivered anywhere in Australia without quarantine restrictions or delays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerformance in trials has been exceptional, with seedling and cutting growth rates comparable to advanced hydroponic systems. Yet unlike hydroponics, the KiS Mix sustains itself with an internal bank of slow-release nutrients and active biology, allowing crops to thrive with minimal external inputs. The addition of a multi-strain Bacillus spp. consortium at batching accelerates early nutrient mineralisation—especially the transformation of ammonium into plant-available nitrate—supporting rapid root development and strong vegetative establishment. Over time, the soil food web continues to cycle nutrients, making it suitable for long-season and multi-cycle cropping in large containers or raised beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a true living soil: as it matures under mulch, growers will observe a rich ecosystem of microorganisms, fungi, and beneficial insects. These organisms form an active soil food web that not only releases nutrients in plant-available forms but also produces natural compounds that suppress pests and pathogens. The ecological balance within the mix contributes to plant resilience, flavour complexity, and the expression of natural plant chemistry such as terpenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy design, this soil supports water-only cultivation when used in appropriately sized containers, reducing reliance on bottled fertilisers and synthetic additives. Nutrient-hungry fruiting crops thrive in this system under correct irrigation and environmental conditions. With light re-amendment between cycles, the mix can be reused over and over again, making it both an economically and environmentally sustainable solution for serious growers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCo-developed with\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/kisorganics.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKiS Organics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– leaders in data-driven living soil science\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSXC Certified Organic and AS3743 Premium Potting Mix compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLab-tested for nutrient balance, EC, pH, and heavy metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulated with peat, perlite, scoria, certified organic compost, and biochar (5%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmended with high-quality organic and mineral inputs for balanced fertility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInoculated with a multi-strain Bacillus consortium to enhance nutrient cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable over multiple crop cycles with light amendments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximises genetic expression, terpene profiles, and yield potential\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces waste—no bottles, soil, or root balls to discard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eContains:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoarse sphagnum peat moss, perlite, lava rock (scoria), certified organic horticultural grade compost, walnut shell biochar, ag lime, gypsum, fish bone meal, neem seed meal, soybean meal, colloidal soft rock phosphate, potassium sulphate, magnesium sulphate, multi-strain bacillus spp. Inoculant, trace element sulphates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndependent reports:\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Saturated-Paste-20250423-186183-1.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSaturated paste test\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e|\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Soil-20250423-186183.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eStandard soil test\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e|\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/SOU037-SS-R8812-HM.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eEAL heavy metals report\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e25L Bag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSXC Certified Organic | AS3743 Premium Potting Mix\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEasy As Organics Living Soil – KiS Mix is more than a growing medium.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eIt’s a biologically active, scientifically validated ecosystem that empowers growers to achieve\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eclean, consistent, high-quality harvests\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewhile building long-term soil health and sustainability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10865\" src=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/NASAA-Input-For-Organic-Production-30022M_screen.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"56\" height=\"31\" srcset=\"https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/NASAA-Input-For-Organic-Production-30022M_screen.jpg 600w, https:\/\/easyasorganics.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/NASAA-Input-For-Organic-Production-30022M_screen-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 56px) 100vw, 56px\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"WHG - Wholesale Horticultural Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43510655811827,"sku":"HH-3272","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/1599\/4867\/files\/easy_as.png?v=1757996624"},{"product_id":"dr-greenthumbs-turbodirt-water-only-super-soil","title":"Dr Greenthumbs - Turbo Dirt Water Only Super Soil 27L","description":"\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReady to use, no need for lengthy \"cooking\" or composting!!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e100% organic ingredients\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll your plant's nutrition is built into the soil for easy use!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGrow organic, mineral-rich \u0026amp;
