Super Humus - The Answer To California's Soil Challenges

The world's most productive soils are high in organic matter (5-20%). Unfortunately, California soils often contain less than 1% organic matter, making them hard and low in nutrients.

Mixed into soil, Super Humus compost's dark, rich color, fine, crumbly texture, and pleasant earthy aroma creates a healthy environment for plants to thrive. Its mix of immediately available nutrients give growing plants the boost they need while slow-decaying wood fines help hold soil structure and porosity for several years.

Unlike regular fertilizers which may leach out of soil, Super Humus compost releases its nutrients slowly and consistently over time, just as your plants need them, ensuring rapid and healthy growth.

In addition to improving soils' physical characteristics, Super Humus compost is "food" for the beneficial micro-organisms which help keep plants free of disease.

Suggestions For Use and Application Rates

Use Super Humus compost to amend existing soils for:

Turf Grass, Sod and Conservation Mix Planting - rototill a 2-inch layer of Super Humus compost into the top 6 inches of soil. Use more Super Humus compost for soils that are especially poor in nutrients.

Potting Mixes, Nursery Mixes - each mix is specific to plants being grown. BFI Organics offers free lab testing and agronomic consulting to determine the mix best suited to your specific needs.

Quality Compost

Not all composts are created equal. Making quality compost involves the careful blending of ingredients to achieve a chemical balance ideal for microbial growth, then closely managing the transformation from plant matter to humus.

BFI Organics starts with 100% recycled plant and woody ingredients; we then scientifically manage and monitor the active composting process to ensure a healthy, stable compost free of weed seeds and pathogens.

BFI Organics tests Super Humus compost through all stages of its manufacture. Routine testing at Soil and Plant Labs confirms the quality and consistency of Super Humus compost.
