BULK MATERIALS - Soil Amendments

BULK MATERIAL: Recommended Uses

3/4” Minus Crushed Limestone:
Packs very well for driveways.  Must be watered in to reduce fines and settle.


1 1/4” to 3/4” Screened Limestone:
Crushed rock best used for paths, walkways or top dressing for existing limestone driveways.  Very few fines—packs fair.


5/8” Minus Crushed Rock:
For driveways, packs very well.  Gray in color with lots of fines (very sandy).  Must be watered in to reduce fines and settle.


1” to 2” Drain Rock:
Smooth round rocks that allow water to run through.


Pea Gravel:
Not crushed.  Round rocks okay for drainage, paths and walkways.  Not for use in driveways—does not pack very well.


Sand—Construction or riverbed:
Children’s sandboxes, setting patio stones or brick.  Good additive to hard clay soil to break it up and improve drainage.


Bark—Medium and Fine:
Decorative and mulching purposes.  Keeps moisture around plant material.

Sawdust:
Mulch or healing in plants.  Good additive to hard clay soil to break it up and retain moisture.


Sandy Loam Topsoil:
Good base for lawns or gardens.  Needs amending with organic material for gardening.


Nursery Soil Mixes:


3-Way: Topsoil, sawdust and composted cow manure.  Ready to plant!


5-Way: Topsoil, sawdust, composted cow manure, sand and mushroom compost.  Ready to plant!


Compost:
The compost is a mixture of aged cow manure and sawdust.  Use as a top dressing mulch, or as an organic soil additive for gardens.  N-P-K is 1.8-.4-1 which is nice and rich for compost.
