Why buy topsoil when you can make your own?

Most development projects traditionally start by stripping away topsoil. The remaining subsoil is of inferior quality, often incapable of maintaining healthy grasses and ornamentals. McGill Soil Builder compost provides a cost-effective and successful replacement for that lost topsoil, replenishing the microbial populations and rebuilding the organic matter which make a natural soil system work.

Topdressing	Add up to ¼ inch of compost; best when combined with core aeration
Soil amendment	1 inch of compost for every 3–4 inches of desired incorporation depth
