Soil Preparation & Rejuvenation

Healthy soil is the foundation of a thriving garden

 Canberra’s soils can be clay-heavy, compacted, nutrient-poor, or biologically inactive. My soil rejuvenation service focuses on rebuilding soil structure, restoring microbial life, and improving fertility for long-term plant health.

HUMIC & FULVIC ACIDS

Humic and fulvic acids increase nutrient uptake, stimulate root growth, support microbial life, and help the soil retain moisture. They are essential tools in rebuilding soil biology.

FINISHING WITH MULCH

Mulching with native chip, lucerne, or composted bark helps stabilise moisture, protect microbes, and maintain structure.

TRACE ELEMENTS & BIOLOGICAL INPUTS

• Volcanic rock dust for slow-release minerals.
• Seaweed extracts for resilience and recovery.
• Microbial tonics to support bacteria, fungi, and root development.
