How to use:

Suitable for all plant types including annuals, trees, shrubs and natives. However, most plants won’t thrive in 100% compost so it is important to mix correctly. It is ideal for:

1. Constructing new garden beds or raised beds by mixing with plenty of topsoil
2. Improving soil conditions in existing beds by applying a 1-3cm layer to the surface or dig into topsoil
3. Seed raising by sifting the compost to remove larger chunks of wood, and adding vermiculite or perlite to a 3:1 ratio

Health & safety precautions

Precautions should be taken when handling any compost product to reduce risk of inhaling or ingesting fungal spores and harmful microbes that could be present.

We recommend that you handle the compost outside or in a well-ventilated area, wear gloves and a face mask, avoid touching your face, wash your hands before eating, drinking and smoking, and wash produce thoroughly before consuming.

We also suggest storing in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place (away from children and pets) and avoid handling if you are immunocompromised or have respiratory conditions.
