Tree Planting
The amount of growing media required depends on the size of the tree
- Whips – allow one bag for 4-5 trees
- Trees up to 3m – allow two bags per tree
Shrub Planting
- Apply one bag per 5-6sq. m (equal to 1,700-200 bags per ha)
- Spread evenly across the area and fork / rotavate into the top 10cm of soil
General Soil Improvement
- Apply one bag per 8sq. m (equal to 1,250 bags per ha)
- Spread evenly across the area and fork / rotavate into the top 8 -10cm of soil
Fruit Trees
- Quantity will depend on the size of the tree and plating hole, as a guide. 14-28 litres should be efficient for most situations. Based on the 14-litre rate approximately one bag per 5 trees.
- Good product for mulching young trees to establishment. Providing soil is suitably moist before mulch is applied
- Apply a layer of the growing media approximately 5cm deep around the base of the tree covering the rooting area. This will help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Always use appropriate protective gear, such as gloves and masks, when handling growing media. Wash hands thoroughly after use. For more information, technical specifications, pricing, and custom packaging options, please contact our sales team.
