Natural volcanic minerals & trace elements to boost soil fertility, improving plant health and vigour. Watch yields increase with healthier crops & produce with higher nutritional values.
SEER® Rockdust® is 420 million years old, freshly ground, untreated volcanic rock blended from Scottish quarries. Years of rigorous gardening trials and scientific analysis show SEER® Rockdust® to be safe to add to soils, composts and growing media.
While chemical fertilisers may produce more immediate visual results, when you add SEER® Rockdust® you are adding a huge range of minerals and trace elements for long term soil health.
With the addition of SEER® Rockdust® to your garden soil, compost or growing media and the activities of naturally occurring microbes and worms the results give the following benefits:
Crops • Boosts organic soil fertility • Bigger healthier crops • Higher nutritional value • Better flavour • Longer shelf life • Increase in pest & disease resistance • Lusher lawns • Improved drought resistance • Encourages microbial activity Compost • Encourages microbial activity • Increases temperature • Faster composting • Reduces odour • Improves fertility • Locks in nitrogen
Application of SEER® Rockdust®
SEER® Rockdust® is most effective when applied at the end of the growing season so that the soil will be remineralised for the following spring. It is, however, beneficial to apply at any time of year – the sooner the better.
Sprinkle SEER® Rockdust® as evenly as possible over the appropriate area of ground to be planted. Lightly rake the SEER® Rockdust® into the top 5 – 10 cm of soil.
Minimum dose – 0.5kg per square metre – 20kg bags covers 40 square metres, apply annually. Maximum dose – 5kg per square metre – 20kg bag covers 4 square metres, apply every 5 – 10 years.
Recommendation from Angus Horticulture’s Sales Director: Apply at 2kg per square metre in the first instance and then at 0.5kg per square metre every autumn [Oct/Nov].
SEER® Rockdust® can be used with other organic soil conditioners and plant foods. SEER® Rockdust® has organic accreditation and verification from various professional organisations.
For use in containerised growing [pots, growbags etc] – Mix 3mm SEER® Rockdust® into compost surface. You can choose to add your own worms where appropriate or contact Angus Horticulture for their range of worm cast products for introducing microbes to otherwise sterile growing media.
For use in compost activation sprinkle 3 – 5 mm of SEER® Rockdust® onto each layer of green waste as it is added.
