Compost Enhancer - Hydrated Lime
Hydrated Lime accelerates the decomposition of composting material and neutralises acidic soil. A fast acting form of lime, hydrated lime releases nutrients in your soil making them readily available to plants.
High in calcium, hydrated lime is essential for strong cell structure, seed production and promotes strong root development. Hydrated Lime can also be applied to destroy slugs and snails, and prevent disease like blossom end rot in plants such as tomato and capsicum due to calcium deficiencies.
