The images to the left displays the rapid growth of grasses possible with only the use of compost over the course of just 19 days!.
This is a six acre non-irrigated horse forage field in southern New Hampshire. It was clear cut in 2006 and graded which caused terrible erosion and exposed subsoil. The hydro seeding in September 2007 resulted in very poor germination.
This field was top dressed with 1/4 inch of compost on June 2nd using the Eco-Lawn Spreader
The first photograph was taken on June 2nd 2008 and the second on June 20th 2008. This field received only 1 1/2 inches of rain during that period of time!
No chemicals or chemical fertilizers were used. Just compost.
This is why we know that Compostwerks! |
