 Benefits -

Boosts soil nutrients | Improve soil texture | Improve planter bed appearance and colour | Alternative to mulch | Sustainable natural alternative to chemical fertilizers | 100% recycled organics

Where to use -

  • Around existing established shrubs, planter beds. Top dressing for that manicured look.
  • Work into existing soil to boost nutrient levels or leave on top and the nutrients will slowly wash down into the root system.

Where not to use -

  • Not recommended as 100% soil for new seedlings/starter plants as the nitrogen content is to high. If soil amender is mixed 50/50 with your existing soil then it's fine to plant new seedlings.

How to use  -

The secret of soil conditioning is getting the right nutrients right to where your plants need them – at the roots. Soil amender can be used to top dress lawns, mulch flower beds or be mixed right into the soil for excellent results. And using it is easy...

  • flower beds and veggie gardens: Mix one inch of amender with the top four inches of soil.
  • established flower/shrub beds: Top dress with 1.5" of amender.
  • roses, tubers and bulbs: Use one part amender to four parts soil.
  • trees and shrubs: Placing amender over the existing soil surface will help maintain moisture and improve native soil conditions, minimize weed competition and provide a well-groomed dark uniform appearance. Top dress with 1.5" - 2" of amender.
  • new lawns: Cover the ground with one or two inches and work into existing soil a few inches. Follow normal planting and sodding procedures. Do not use as primary soil, you must mix it in.
  • established lawns: Mow your lawn shorter than normal, spread 1/4 - 1/2 inch of amender and rake it in or use a broom and get it down to the base. While raking in remove any small bits of wood and anything that doesnt drop down. Water well! Leave the lawn for several mowing cycles as required, you don’t want to suck up all that great new soil with the grass clippings. Mulching your lawn clippings is acceptable and let it all fall back on the surface. Apply in fall or early spring. Water well
  • container/planter mixes: Amend potting mix to 20 per cent amender, or top dress existing planters with a 1/4" - 1 " as required

    Looks fabulous! We are pleased with the look of our garden. One problem: strong smell of dog poop that seems not to go away.

    Amazing product and excellent service

    Bought this for the first time last year. Self-seeding kale was more than DOUBLE height where it grew in the Amender vs other equally sunny spots in the garden!! Bought even more Amender this year! Great service, bags very carefully and perfectly placed without damage to nearby fruit trees. Thank you!

    We are very happy with this product. The delivery time was communicated accurately and the product placed exactly where we wanted it. The bags are easy to use and to reseal during inclement weather. The amender provides an excellent mulch with good structure and nutrient properties, judging by the smell! We would buy this again.

    High in animal manures that could have benefited with a few more months composing. Very consistent soilless mixture though. We need assurances that all of your products are PEAT-FREE. I will never purchase a product that is not.

    Delivery time was spot on and quick and was off loaded exactly where needed. Will use this in the future.
