Have you given up on a nice garden because of sandy soil?
Give your sandy soil body and improve its ability to hold nutrients.
SandMend works to give your plants a chance.
SandMend is designed to help improve conditions in your sandy soil so your plants can thrive.
Helps improve the body of sandy soil
SandMend helps improve the structure of sandy soil. Sandy soils typically lack the environment that will promote organic microbial activity. SandMend helps improve the environment of the soil so microbes can thrive. This organic activity helps hold particles of sand together, building the structure of sandy soil which results in soil with more body that can support a stronger root systems. In addition you can add compost and other organic material which will work in synergy with SandMend to give further benefit to your sandy soil.
Helps increase nutrient holding capacity of the soil
SandMend includes organic carbon that can hold nutrients that sand particles cannot. This increases the availability of nutrients to the plant when the plant needs them.
Helps reduce ground water pollution from fertilizer runoff
Sandy soils and silt soils usually drain well but they typically cannot store nutrients well. Even when fertilizing less than normal on these types of soils it can result in the nutrients being washed out of the soil into the ground water. The poor growth that results can lead us to over fertilize and make the problem worse. By increasing the carbon in the soil it can then store more nutrients so that fewer nutrients are washed into the ground water.
Helps improve fertilizer efficiency
SandMend contains carbon particles that can store nutrients in the soil. As the nutrient storing capacity of the soil increases more fertilizer becomes available to your plants. Fertilizer that was once leached (washed) out of the soil becomes available so less fertilizer needs to be applied. When it is properly stored in the soil less fertilizer is washed into the ground water or volatilized into the air.
Improves soil pH
Sandy soils can be highly acidic. SandMend improves the environment of the soil and as the environment of the sandy soil improves it can sustain more microbial activity. Microbial activity naturally moves soils toward a neutral pH. The more of this organic microbial activity that occurs, the more the soil moves to a neutral pH. Adding more organic material to sandy soil will help encourage microbial activity which in turn will work to push the soil towards a neutral pH.
Helps improve yeild of sandy soil
SandMend helps improve the ability of the soil to store nutrients. This makes nutrients available to your plants for a longer period of time and results in healthier more productive growth.
Bring Hope to Your Sandy Garden with SandMend
Energize your sandy soil with SandMend
SandMend is a liquid solution that helps improve sandy soil. Sandy soil is often limited and can naturally have a poor ability for healthy plant growth. SandMend helps improve the environment of soils and encourages biological activity in the soil to help improve soil conditions. This activity includes the breakdown of old organic matter, the creation of humus and the production of beneficial organic acids. SandMend infuses the soil with nutrient holding organic carbon. By improving the ability of the soil to hold nutrients, we decrease our dependence on chemical fertilizers and in turn reduce the possibility of polluting our ground water.
SandMend helps reduce improve soil imbalances that impedes beneficial biological activity. The biological activity encouraged by SandMend helps reduce environmental hazards from excess fertilizer use including fertilizers that enter into ground water through leaching. By utilizing the improved storage capacity of the soil, less fertilizer is needed and a more balance of nutrients become available to plants resulting in healthier overall growth.
How often should SandMend be applied?
Sandy soil can use a lot of improvement. Regular applications of SandMend every couple of months will dramatically improve sandy soil. Amending the soil with organic material such as compost will help accelerate improvements to the soil.
