Our Premium Mix is designed to encourage long term soil sustenance for season after season progression. This progression is directly related to the enhancement of microbial activity and the addition of biological food sources. It will encourage lush and vigorous plant growth, optimal health and an earth-friendly method of gardening.

Our pure vegetable compost has a carbon: nitrogen ratio of 30:1. The C: N ratio of compost is critical for the balance of biological multiplication. Worm castings have a calcium carbonate hydrophobic layer. When water is added to worm castings directly, it will not penetrate the casting. Research shows when adding a layer of compost or mixing compost with worm castings, two effects will take place: pure vegetable compost will hold moisture to begin the removal of the hydrophobic layer; when this layer is dissolved by moisture, the compost blend will immediately begin to feed micro-organisms the required carbon and nitrogen. This feeding will begin the biological growth within the soil.

Another ingredient in Organics Alive Premium Mix is fossilized kelp kelzyme. This supplies calcium, which is responsible for rapid cell structure to encourage vigorous growth and a robust garden; it also helps to push salts below the root web reducing salts build up and balancing osmotic pressure. Fossilized kelp kelzyme also supplies the soil biology with needed potassium and phosphorus for healthy root development. Organics Alive Premium Mix also includes very accurate measurements of powdered volcanic rock mineral. Powdered volcanic rock contains 85 necessary and important levels of trace minerals and micro-nutrients to help assist plant needs and sustain a nutritional balance in the root zone.
