[IBC] Red Cedar in soil (2)
 

Well, since no one can confirm my worries I guess I will just have to try the red cedar mulch in my soil mixture. I'll buy a bag tomorrow and let you know what happens.

I THINK red cedar bark will contain volatile oils that may not be
good in a soil mix. I do not know this for a fact. It's quite a
bit more expensive, but look for "orchid bark" and use that.
