compost

Key features:

  • Rejuvenates impoverished soils
  • Improves soil texture
  • Increases beneficial microbe and earthworm populations
  • Improves water holding

How it works

  • Compost adds organic matter to the soil to replace that lost through continual cultivation and cropping. Constant hoeing, digging and raking eventually destroys the structure of the soil – compost rebuilds it.
  • It has been designed and is guaranteed to improve the overall texture and quality of soils

How to use

  1. Prepare your garden soil before planting by thoroughly working a 10cm layer of Compost & NutirCast into the top 15cm or so of soil with a rake. Close the bag tightly after use
  2. Add another 10cm layer of compost to the bed and mix it into the previously amended soil. This should create a 15-20cm raised bed.
  3. Use as a mulch after planting (excellent for mulching around edibles)
  4. Water thoroughly after planting and as frequently as possible until plants are established
  5. For best results, after three months feed again or condition with NutriCast

Maximum application rates
Sensitive plants 25L/m2

When to use

  • All year round
  • Whenever soil is being prepared for new plantings
  • At the start of Summer as a mulch to protect bare soils, reduce evaporation and insulate soils improving water retention
