Top soil for making potting soil?

Here’s my soil building thread
Do urself a favor and kick the peat out the pic and use coir instead

Lime is to balance peat that can swing down to 5, coir is neutral at 7 so if u use coir then no lime needed either, the compost should be acidic enough to put u in the sweet spot

Ur on the right track but instead of a top soil just use mushroom compost! Stuff is wonderful for gardens
