I recently made some really nice soil for my CP seeds but I have a fair bit left over. I was wondering, is there a safe way to store this without it being like contaminated or anything? (I'm only asking because both the sand and peat are rinsed so I don't want any mould/fungi taking root) or will it be just fine in a shed?
