Woodside’s Farmyard Manure is an excellent, peat-free organic option for enhancing soil health and promoting plant growth. Here’s a breakdown of the best ways to use it:
- General Use:
- Spread the manure evenly over the soil at a depth of 50-100mm (2-3 inches).
- Work it into the soil to improve texture, provide nutrients, and help retain moisture.
- When Planting Trees and Shrubs:
- Mix the manure into the soil around the planting area at the base.
- This enriches the planting hole, giving new plants the nutrients they need for healthy root development.
- Around Existing Plants:
- Spread the manure at a depth of 50-70mm (1-2 inches) around the base of your plants.
- Ensure there’s a 2-3 inch gap around plant stems to avoid direct contact, which could potentially harm them.
Using Woodside’s Farmyard Manure regularly will help improve soil structure, boost plant growth, and suppress weed growth. It’s an excellent addition to both vegetable and ornamental gardens.
