G&B Organics Soil Building Conditioner
This amendment works wonders breaking up hard clay soils to improve texture and drainage while beneficial Mycorrhizae promote plants’ root growth. It’s one of the most versatile products we carry and one of our favorites!
Soil Building Condition is excellent for amending garden beds where trees, shrubs, perennials, vegetables, and fruit are planted. We also highly recommend it as a top cover when overseeding lawns and as an effective top mulch with a finely shredded bark texture.
Ingredients: Recycled forest products, arbor fines (finely ground tree trimmings), composted chicken manure, gypsum, oyster shell & dolomite limes (as pH adjusters), vermicompost, bat guano, kelp meal, and Mycorrhizae.
E.B. Stone Organics Planting Compost
This compost is a blend of all-natural ingredients to amend all types of soils, improve drainage, and increase water retention in the soil. The texture is finer than that of the Soil Building Conditioner.
Planting Compost is great for amending where trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, vegetables, and fruit are planted. It makes an attractive, dark-colored top mulch. Because of its fine texture, we also recommend adding it to the soil before laying sod or seeding your lawn.
Ingredients: Composted wood shavings, redwood compost, composted chicken manure, fir bark, bat guano, kelp meal, and alfalfa meal.
G&B Organics Harvest Supreme
This organic soil amendment, specifically formulated for vegetable and flower gardens, is blended with 15% composted chicken manure for more lush, full plant growth. It breaks up clay soils and has added Mycorrhizae, a beneficial symbiotic fungus that allows the plant’s roots to obtain more nutrients and moisture.
Ingredients: Recycled forest products, composted chicken manure, bark fines, rice hulls, oyster shell lime (as pH adjuster), worm castings, bat guano, kelp meal, and Mycorrhizae.
G&B Organics Farmyard Blend
A blend of dairy and chicken manures, this product is recommended for areas where rich, high-yielding soil is desired. This blend enhances soil fertility at the time of planting, giving your plants a strong start for full, lush growth. The manures have been fully composted, eliminating odors, weeds, and burning of newly planted crops.
