Soil Renew is a combination of organic plant matter and an ecosystem of microorganisms which creates humus in the soil. It will continue to improve the quality of soil over time. It is in pellet form and should be applied on the surface of the soil once a year. It is easy to use and should not be dug into the soil.
We recommend not digging in Soil Renew for two reasons;
- Soil Renew contains living organisms, both aerobic and anaerobic. When spread on the surface and activated by moisture the pellets will disintegrate and the microorganisms will find their own level in the soil.
- The living things in the soil do a better job of aerating, draining and fertilising the soil than any mechanical methods. The less we disturb them the better for the soil.
- Soil Renew (developed as Bacteriosol in France) increases the amount of humus in sand in only 6 weeks.
- The pellets are placed on the surface and are allowed to disintegrate. They should not be dug in as the living microorganisms both aerobic and anaerobic will find their own level.
- Within 2 weeks the wheat seeds start to germinate and the microorganic life in the soil starts to produce humu.
- Wheat grown in the pots with Bacteriosol/ Soil Renew thrives much better.
- 3 kilos of Soil Renew produce as much organic matter as 1 tonne of farmyard manure!
