How To Use Compost In Your Garden
Compost has many benefits including natural disease suppression and water retention. However, remember that too much of a good thing can be harmful to plants. Compost is a soil amendment and is not to be used to replace natural soil. Follow the guidelines below, or if in doubt, use a ratio of 4:1 soil/compost. All of our compost is tested to meet CQA specifications.
