Compost – FAQs
___________

Why use compost?

Compost is used for a number of reasons which include enriching soil, helping to retain moisture, and also assisting in suppressing plant diseases and pests. Moreover, compost can also contribute positively to plant growth. For businesses, compost will improve green credentials and provide the infrastructure needed to facilitate the composting of food waste too.

Compost vs topsoil – what’s the difference?

Compost and topsoil are often touted under the same breath but there are clear differences between the two. Whilst topsoil is superb for helping to improve the structure and texture of the soil, compost helps to inject organic matter into your garden and provides vital nutrients. Compost is available today for both trade and domestic customers.

Which type of compost is best for me?

PAS100 and Vegetable Compost are both available from Baldwin’s Landscape Supplies and both are fantastic options. Both types of composts are extremely similar and delivery is available in either bulk bags or loose (per tonne).

When is the best time to put compost down?

Although compost can be put down at any time of the year, we do recommend compost being put down either at the end of the season or early spring for maximum effect. In spring, the grass begins to grow slowly once more which makes it a great time to add compost and improve or adjust the quality of soil that may have lost a lot of clay or sand.
