Soil Activator

Soil Amendments

They don't call this "Clay" County for nothing!  

In many places around this area we have very compact,

clay soil.   Many times you need to "amend" the soil to

help your plants get a good root start into the ground.   

Here are some options for you.

 

Soil Activator - A safe, natural way to help return to the soil valuable

 nutrients found in grass clippings and thatch.  Activator promotes

chelation of available nutrients, assists in nutrient uptake and

improves the growth of beneficial micro-organisms.

 

Cotton Boll Compost  - Using compost as mulch, in the soil or as

potting media is beneficial in many ways. Compost  contains a

full spectrum of essential plant nutrients. Compost helps bind

clusters of soil particles, called aggregates,  which provide good

soil structure. Such soil is full of tiny air channels & pores that

hold air, moisture and nutrients.   Compost brings and feeds

diverse life in the soil. These bacteria, fungi, insects, worms and

more support healthy plant growth. Compost increases soil’s ability

to retain water & decreases runoff. Runoff pollutes water by carrying

soil, fertilizers and pesticides to nearby streams.

 

 

Peat Moss is a natural, organic soil conditioner that regulates moisture

and air around plant roots for ideal growing  conditions. It will help

save water, aerate heavy clay soil, reduce leaching, protect soil from

hardening, and add organic material.
