Now is the ideal time to enrich your garden's soil

by Just Green Landscaping

Having a beautiful green lawn with lush plant growth adds to that friendly, lively feeling every home should have. With winter here we need to focus on enriching our soil, as this is the basis for all plant and tree growth. Using organic compost can encourage plush plant and tree growth. It helps retain moisture and suppresses plant disease and pests.

Compost is the end result of organic matter that has been decomposed and recycled. With the use of a specialised mushroom infused compost you reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and encourage the production of beneficial bacteria and fungi that break down organic matter to create humus, a rich nutrient filled material.

Compost returns all the valuable nutrients to the soil to help maintain soil quality and fertility. It is a slow release natural fertilizer that won’t burn plants like some chemical fertilizers will. The texture created by the combination of sand, silt, clay and compost is ideal for drainage and water retention and helps tender roots penetrate the surface more easily. As little as a 5% increase in organic material will quadruple the water-holding capacity of soil, decreasing water runoff. Using compost prevents erosion as it loosens tightly bound particles in clay or silt, which allows roots to spread more easily.
