Trevor meets with Gavin Davis from Soil Solver to discover why using Clay Plus Minerals is not only beneficial for our gardens, but also our natural environment.
- Sandy soils can leach nutrients deep below the plants root system and into the ground water table, which then flows into waterways causing algal blooms.
- Soil Solver Clay Plus Minerals reduces this leaching, which increases the plants' ability to use all the nutrients you apply and improves the moisture consistency around the plants’ root system.
- Retaining this moisture is vital for keeping local environments cool, preventing the Heat Island Effect.
- Clay Plus Minerals differs from other products as it amends the structure of sandy soil to a mineral-rich loam-style soil.
- You should aim to apply between 7.5 and 12kg per square metre and then cultivate the mix evenly into the topsoil to a depth of approximately 100mm.
