has anyone tried the sulcatafood.com seed mix?

[Mordy]

ive been struggling to get suitable food for mordy and i read about sulcatafood.com and they have what seems like a good seed mix:

thanks!

I have and it is rapidly growing in cement mixing tubs in my backyard. The seed sprouted within three days and they grow like weeds. I recommend it.

I tried to buy some once, but a family member was having health issues and there were all sorts of reasons why it couldn't be sent. It probably is a decent product though.

I checked out a place recommended to me by a big breeder in AZ. Its called Peaceful Valley Farms. Here: http://www.groworganic.com/

They have all sorts of pasture mixes that are perfect for sulcatas as well as individual seeds for leafy greens, alfalfa and many types of clover. And their prices are a fraction of what others are charging.

I'm also trying out some seeds mixes that I got from Tyler at http://tortoisesupply.com/ I just put it in the ground a few days ago and so far so good.

hmmm I think I need to try this. Ive grown all sorts of veggies, and cactus but never done the grass thing. 3 acres usually provides a good amount for them all.

Yes. I tried both and much prefer the Batavian. It gives you big broad leaves that are nice and tender. The tres fine was good for the first couple of harvests, but it quickly got very coarse and stiff. It sent up these fibrous rigid shutes very early on. It was fine to feed to the big adult sulcatas, but no good for anything smaller than that. Well not with out a blender anyway. The batavian gave me a lot more yield for a lot longer.
