Recommended Rates

The more Mineral Magic you add, the more water and nutrients are held in the soil, choose to add between 500 gms to 10 kgs per sqm. If your garden area is 80 sqm, two 20 kg bags would permanently treat it at the lowest rate.

Gardens

From 500g per square metre increases plant available water and results in healthier, more robust plant growth. Add higher rates for vegetables and exotic plants such as roses.
Trees and potting mix, between 5% to 20% of soil mix volume (more for sand, less for loam and clay soils)

Lawns

• New lawns, prior to planting, seeding or turfing spread 500 gms per square metre and hoe it into the top 10 cm. Adding a 30cm layer of organic soil conditioner and hoeing both in will have even better results.
• Existing lawns, add a total of 500 gms per square meter in multiple applications. For example, 250 grams per square meter added twice, a few weeks apart. Mineral Magic can be mixed with other mediums such as coir or organic soil conditioner and added after coring the lawn area. Common ratios are between 10% to 40% of the other medium.
