Essentials Top Soil is a rich, fertile loam-based soil. It’s a sustainable, rich source of nutrients that supports the growth of flowers and fruits. Ideal for making raised beds where existing soil is poor or for replacing soil that is tired or unsuitable for the re-planting of related plants. It can be used as a component of soil/loam-based type composts.
Perfect for new beds and borders, replacing old soil, leveling lawns, and making compost. Works well for young plants and grown plants. Essentials Top Soil is also children and pet-friendly. We strongly recommend using Levington John Innes Ericaceous compost for acid-loving plants like azaleas, rhododendrons, or heathers.
Use straight from the bag, it’s as easy as that. When filling or potting, firm lightly. Keep the compost moist and do not let it dry out. Do not leave plants standing in water.
For beds and borders: Use Essentials Top Soil straight from the bag to build up beds and borders. Dig in this fertile blend to enrich your tired existing soil with its high organic matter content. No lime has been added to Essentials Top Soil and it is suitable for improving the soil around rhododendrons, azaleas, heathers, and other ericaceous plants.
For making compost: Due to its high organic matter content, this top-quality soil is ideal for mixing with base dressings to make a loam-based compost. To enrich it add Miracle-Gro Continuous Release Plant Food granules at the rate of 25g per 10 litres of soil. For alpines and other plants that need increased drainage, add 1 part coarse grit or washed sharp sand to 3 parts of Essentials Top Soil. Where to use.
Great for beds and borders, replacing sick soil, leveling lawns, and making compost.
Fills 7 medium pots 22cm (9″). Fills 4 large pots 25cm (10″). Fills 1 large container 42cm (17″).
