Just Natural Organic Mushroom Compost is an all natural product that makes a great soil amendment for flower beds, containers and other plantings. It will help loosen and aerate dense, clay soils in our region or improve moisture management in sandy areas. We recommend blending this product with Metro Mix 830 at a 1:1 ratio for about every 36 square feet of bed space. Ideally, you will have to get your hands in the dirt and make decisions on the quality of the soil in your planting area to determine the best ratio for your situation. You could also add in addition/or in place of Mushroom Compost a bag of the JN Organic Garden Soil along with the Metro Mix 830 as an amendment. Either way, we have great products for you to determine what is best for your environment.
