I have a big bag of erica that I don't need right now, but I do need mpc, so I was wondering if I could mix the erica up with mpc and growbags to dilute the acidity?

Got two blueberries already, and my balcony is chokablok already, but yeah, I was wondering if I should just opt for more blueberries but then they'll grow and I have a pretty good feeling this place will be a jungle come summer as it is, so no space really.
Except brassicas?? Really? I went researching for acid-loving plants before coming here for advice, and the list was pitiful! That means I can fill up the new bed with the erica and my remaining normal compost and it should be fine - plant the brass in the other bed, which I've planned out to do so anyway. And maybe add some lime if they look to be suffering or simply move the sufferers over to the other bed.
Thanks

Reply to Heated mat for Tom's and chilliesby raryI use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
