I'm looking for some advice on the best soil mix for growing potatoes in containers. Is it better to use peat moss or coco coir? I've heard that peat moss can make the soil more acidic, but I'm wondering if I should just stick with coco coir instead. Would peat moss really make that much of a difference for growing potatoes?

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend using peat moss at all. It's not sustainable and has a negative impact on the environment. You can use a simple soil and compost mix for your potatoes; they really don't mind as long as it's well-draining.
Thanks for the tip! I wasn’t aware peat moss was such a big deal.
