Blended with organic feedstock, Compost Sugar™ (a pumice grade-blend) tamps down decomposition volatility, then combo-punches with the finished compost to rebuild and recharge poorly-structured, nutrient-starved junk soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePumice Sweetens the Decomposition Process.\u003c\/strong\u003e Blending organic feedstock with pumice improves the composting process itself, as pumice buffers the extreme volatilization cooking off in the decomposing matter, capturing nitrogen and mitigating its loss. Pumice also provides inert bulk that improves airflow and process efficiency, especially when composting soft manures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePumice Gives Compost an Enduring Structural Element.\u003c\/strong\u003e Compost is valuable for both the nutrient charge that it adds to poor or depleted soils and for the (temporary) physical reshaping it brings to the soil structure itself. A friable, well-composed root zone is vital to sustained vegetative health, and composted organic matter certainly lends those structural benefits to poorly-structured soils...until it doesn’t. Once the organic matter is exhausted, poorly-structured soils collapse, reverting to inglorious junk-dirt status. The solution: compost fortified with inorganic and enduring pumice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCompost Sugar\u003c\/b\u003e™ is an economical mine grade size-blended to be an ideal functional amendment to composting feedstock. \u003cstrong\u003eInstructions: \u003c\/strong\u003e Sprinkle liberally\/heavily over each added layer of compostable waste\/feedstock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete Product Information and Support Data\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca title=\"Compost Sugar: Composting amendment\" href=\"https:\/\/compostsugar.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ecompostsugar.com\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hess Pumice Products","offers":[{"title":"20 lbs.
