DIY potting mix

If anyone makes their own I would appreciate knowing what they put in it. Also if anyone makes their own seed raising mix. Am finding the purchased potting mixes very poor quality nowadays. Thanks for any help.

Yeah, you can go with Dalton organic mix, expensive but very good, looks like soil rather than bark, it's what I use, after trying my own mix, with my compost, coconut fibre and vermiculite, roughly one third each, but found too many weeds come up amongst my seeds, so now I leave the compost out and add dalton potting mix, it makes it go further, I also add Enviromental Fertilisers, natures garden, a handful in the mix. None of the potting mixes have enough fertiliser in them.

How do you find the coconut fibre?
