Step 5Preparing Soil for your Box
If you don't already have your own specialty dirt in your back yard, I suggest using potting soil.
There is such a wide variety of soils at the gardening section of practically every store to choose from, but personally i would use an extremely light, home made mix of 1/3 vermiculite, 1/3 peat moss, and 1/3 filler stuff (usually cheap soil, some compost, dirt from the ground, or whatever).
Little Tip:
Soak it a little with some water so it doesn't create a huge dust cloud.
Mmmm... dirt....
