Blended from: manure compost, bark, crushed, washed screened granite, vermiculite, bone char, mined gypsum, sphagnum peat moss, kelp, blood meal.
Uses
• A potting soil with superior dimensional stability where a coarse texture is preferred and extra weight is not a concern
• Used for pot and large container planting

Best Practices
Prep for use: None necessary. Don’t let it dry out in a pot as it will shrink. Keep moist in beds, planters, and containers for the same reason.
Handling: Do not let the product over dry or get waterlogged. Store under cover, out of direct sunlight. Protect from weed seeds and animals.
Supplemental Fertility: None necessary until the roots fill the pot and/or eight weeks from planting. Supplement with Compost Plus. For large containers and planters, supplement with insoluble slow release fertility at planting time to prevent running low later in the season.
Storage and Shelf Life: Store in a cool, neither dry nor wet place to maintain moisture content. Product should be used within 12 months from date of purchase; older product may still be good if it has not over dried or gotten wet.
