BLESSINGS BLENDS Premium Compost is a product for improving the quality of existing soils, not a soil replacement. This product should be used as part of a complete fertility program.

DIRECTION FOR USE
Potting Mix Blend – Mix 1 part compost to 10 parts soil (or peat moss) for most annuals, perennials, vegetables, ornamental shrubs and trees. Acid loving plants may need an additive to reduce soil pH – consult with your local extension agent or garden center.

Potted Plants – Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of BLESSINGS BLENDS Premium Compost to the surface of a 6″ pot; 1/4 cup to 10″ pot; 1/3 cup to a 12″ pot. Repeat every 6 weeks throughout the season.

Bedding soil – apply 30 lbs. of compost (one bag) per 600 sq. ft. of area to be planted. Rake lightly to incorporate into the top of the soil. Top dress vegetated area with 10 lbs. per 600 sq. ft. every 6 weeks during growing season.

Benefits of Using Premium Compost

• Improves soil structure and porosity – creates better plant root environment;
• Increases moisture infiltration and permeability – reduces soil density
• Improves the moisture holding capacity of light soils
• Improves the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of soils;
• Supplies organic matter
• Aids the proliferation of soil microorganisms
• Encourages vigorous root growth
• Allows plants to more effectively utilize nutrients, reducing nutrient loss by leaching
• Enables soils to retain nutrients longer;
• Contains humus – assisting in soil aggregation and making nutrients more available for plant uptake; Buffers soil pH.
