Top Dressing.
It is found to benefit all types and pH of soil and promote plant growth and vigour. It can be applied at any time of year and at any stage of plant growth. The only exception to this is when the ground is frozen and REMIN volcanic rock dust cannot get into the soil or when it is very windy. Simply sprinkle evenly onto soil from the edge of a spade or trowel then rake in, or let worms and weather do this for you.
Minimum Annual Dose
Apply 0.5kg per square metre, or in gardener’s terms “a handful a yard”. A 10kg bag supplies 20 square metres. This annual dose has also been seen to benefit lawns.
Booster Dose
Apply 2kg per square metre to give your soil a boost.
Top Dressing for Large Areas
REMIN volcanic rock dust can be applied to fields and parks, whether grass land or cultivated, using a Lime Spreader. Fertiliser Spinners can also be used but care has to be taken to prevent it sticking to the sides of the spinner. Salt Spreaders with a Heavy Duty Agitator are also ideal.
MINIMUM DOSE
0.5kg per square meter = 2 tonnes per acre
BOOSTER DOSE
2kg per square metre = 8 tonnes per acre
Compost Improver
Mix 2kg through 50 litres of compost. Works well if you mix in wheelbarrow or trug. A good handful mixed through a bucket of compost works fine
