OrmanicaTM
Premium Plant Compost
OrmanicaTM (1-0.5 -0.5) is an all natural, low odor, non-compacting refined premium plant compost manufactured with a proprietary process that utilizes earthworms, vegetable matter, agricultural grade mulch and beneficial bacteria. This process generates small, uniform, easy-to-apply particles. The small size and large surface area result in rapid particle breakdown and quick release of stored nutrients.

• Rich in microbial life, which diversifies the soil microbial community
• Improves and sustains soil physical properties
• Enhances the availability of plant nutrients – increases CEC
