This nutrient-dense blend turns tired soil into a thriving ecosystem by leveraging the natural power of composted shellfish. It is a heavy-duty amendment that requires a bit more care in application, but the trade-off is a remarkably dark, aerated foundation that makes organic gardening feel effortless.
