Soil Amendments

Adjusting nutrient levels in your soil can be done many different ways with many different soil amendments. Most soils need some kind of balancing with either macro or micronutrients at some point in it’s lifetime. Knowing that growers need a broad choice of amendments at reasonable prices has led us to provide you with a range of soil amendments.

As soil testing has gained popularity in the natural soil market, the need for products to make adjustments has grown. Back in the day organic farmers thought all you had to do was add animal manure compost every year for a healthy soil. We now know there is a lot more to it than that, and adding to much compost can actually be detrimental and cost prohibitive.

Depending on your type or style of growing there are many different ways to factor in what amendments would be best for your particular soil situation. The obvious first choice is to get a soil test from a reputable lab and base your needs off of that.

Regardless of the methods you use to direct you toward the best way to balance your soil, having a wide range of options at reasonable prices is key. That’s why we spend so much time sourcing soil balancing products that can help to balance most any soil issues.
