How To Use:
Spread Melcourt Composted Fine Bark evenly onto the soil surface to a depth of not less than 50mm, then thoroughly incorporate it into at least the top 150mm of soil.
These application rates can be exceeded on poor soils or where deeper penetration is required.
As Melcourt Composted Fine Bark has a low available nutrient content it is usually advisable to apply a balanced fertiliser at the time of application if the area is to be newly planted.
The Composted Fine Bark polythene packaging has been manufactured using at least 30% post-consumer waste plastic. We are working with our suppliers to increase this level as quickly as we can. 50-litre Bags are 100% recyclable but check regionally for local recycling options.
