I get peat based compost or something airy if you are not into peat. I have never had luck with John Innes even though I would use seed that had germinated they would rot.

What ever compost I use I add lots of perlite and vermiculite.

You might ask how much? Let your common sense guide you!

Make sure to sieve it around and break down those lumps with your hands, there is alot of crap they put into compost I find pieces of bark, lumps of all sorts that are going to interfere with a small seed.

You can see the vermiculite and perlite in there, it helps to hold the right amount of air and moisture in there without causing rot
