Ideal for use as an annual soil conditioner, our Soil Improver is rich in organic matter, helping improve soil structure, fertility and drainage, to create better growing conditions for plants, flowers and vegetables.

It’s particularly useful after the main growing season, helping replenish beds and borders and prepare the soil for the months ahead. Simply work it into existing soil to help improve its texture, support healthy root growth and give your garden a strong foundation for the next growing season.

How to Use:

Simply spread a layer of soil improver (about 2–5 cm thick) over beds, borders or veg patches and dig it in. For established plants, use as a mulch around the base to feed the soil and reduce watering.

Great For:

· Flower beds and borders
· Vegetable gardens and allotments
· Fruit trees and bushes
· Roses, shrubs, and new plantings

With our Organic Soil Improver, you’ll enjoy richer soil, stronger roots, healthier plants, and bigger harvests. Buy now.

Our Soil Improver (also known as soil conditioner) is available in small bags, large bulk bags, or full-pallet sizing. All orders are shipped on a pallet via our trusted courier network, with delivery to the kerbside or the nearest safe, accessible drop-off point. 

When you select the bulk-bag option, the pallet is offloaded using a tail-lift and moved with a pallet truck. Because of this, delivery requires a firm, level surface. If access to your property is difficult or uncertain, please contact us on 01243 781730 before placing your order so we can advise on the best delivery option. 

Once dispatched, we’ll send you tracking information. For large orders, deliveries may be split across multiple pallets depending on weight and amount.

FAQs

This depends on your goal! If you want to improve the growth of your plants, enjoy more blossoms on your flowers, and provide your garden with additional nutrition, then you should use compost.

However, if you want to reduce weed development, manage run-off and keep soil moist, then it’s mulch that you need.

We recommend using enough compost to blend with the existing soil in your garden at approximately a 20-30% ratio. This will ensure there is enough compost for your plants to get all of the nutrients they need, whilst not being the only soil in the mix!

Remember, Earth Cycle organic composts are soil additions and have been created to mix with the topsoil already in your garden. For more information on how much compost you’ll need for a particular project, get in touch with our team on 01243 781730 – we’re happy to help! Alternatively, if you’re buying bulk compost for delivery, then why not use the help of our Bulk Bag Calculator for a quick and easy calculation.
