What is AustraBlend Super Soil?

AustraBlend Super Soil (Patent Pending) is a soil improver formulated from natural clays and composts. Super Soil stores water and nutrients and is proven to make them available to the plant material in the most efficient way. One of the constituents of Super Soil is Palagonite, a basaltic clay found in this form only in Queensland Australia which is
high in plant available nutrients and silica, often overlooked but essential for healthy plant growth.

AustraBlend Super Soil prevents water and fertilizers from leaching down through the soil and away from the plant root zone, thus substantially reducing the need for irrigation and fertilizer applications.

AustraBlend Super Soil also contains a balanced blend of soluble fertilizer to promote healthy plant growth.

Composition of AustraBlend Super Soil

Super Soil consists of a scientifically formulated blend of the following elements:

Bentonite
Palagonite
Compost
Soluble fertilisers

The Benefits of AustraBlend Super Soil

Increase in water holding capacity by at least 500%, absorbing and holding water that would otherwise drain away and be lost.
Decrease in fertilizer and water application by up to 50%.
The increased water and nutrient holding capacity of the soil remains a PERMANENT feature as the clays do not break down over time.
AustraBlend Super Soil is made from completely natural ingredients that are non toxic and have only beneficial effects on the eco system.

Increases plant nutrient uptake by holding water and dissolved nutrients in the soil and making them available to plants over an extended period of time.
