EKO Compost... the original organic compost

The original EKO compost developed in 1977 in Missoula, Montana. For use in vegetable and flower gardens, new lawns, landscaping beds, and the planting of trees and shrubs. Helps promote rich organic soil, vigorous root growth, water infiltration and drainage, and pH balance. Improves the soil's physical, chemical, and biological health.

Composting in theory is remarkably simple -- just mix organic matter with water and plenty of oxygen, and let the microorganisms do the rest.

Yet, if it were truly that simple, there wouldn't be such a wide disparity between composts. Some are rich in trace minerals, organic matter, and billions of beneficial microbes. Others may be virtually dead, either "burnt" by improper processing or composed of little more than inert wood by-products.

That's why EKO Compost is one of the Charter Members of the United States Composting Counci's Seal of Testing Assurance Program.

Every batch of EKO compost is rigorously tested to ensure that it meets and exceeds all process and product standards, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Class A "Exceptional Quality" compost, good for unrestricted use including food crops.

EKO Lawn Topdressing

EKO Lawn Topdressing is the original 3/8" compost screened to 3/16".

Due to its size, it easily works its way down through the blades of grass and into the root zone.

It's perfect for topdressing established lawns, for revitalizing worn spots -- every time you buy seed, you should buy topdressing to cover the seed.

It rebuilds "pet spots" and compacted areas.

It fortifies established lawns, especially after aeration.

It builds thicker, lusher lawns; produces vibrant green color; is easy to spread and works with all varieties of grass.

EKO Lawn Topdressing works by restoring organic matter to the soil. Organic matter improves soil structure, helping to develop strong, healthy root systems.

It protects against water and wind erosion; its dark texture absorbs heat, reducing evaporation, holding moisture and reducing waterings.

It adds billions of beneficial microbes that feed nutrients to your plants, while buffering the pH balance of your soil.

EKO Clay Buster

EKO Clay Buster is the original compost with 10% pumice rock (or rice hulls, coffee hulls, any material that has 20+ years of degradation capacity within soil) added to help open, and hold open, heavy soils.

EKO Clay Buster is especially formulated for clay soils. It breaks the clay up to promote root growth; to increase water inflow and outflow; to help oxygen get into and aerate the entire root zone.

Whenever your roots can grow deeper and bigger, they build greater strength. This increases their resistance against wind and water erosion.

This allows them to build mass, eventually breaking up the clay. You must be as tough as the clay. You don't fix it once. You must continually work with it. Over time, you'll win.

EKO Outdoor Planting Mix

EKO Outdoor Planting Mix is a special blend of EKO compost, Canadian Sphagnum peat moss, and pumice rock.

It's formulated for outdoor container gardens, planter boxes, and hanging baskets.

It helps promote strong root structure, lush leaf development, vibrant flower color, and more flowers per plant.

More importantly, as you know, every time you water your hanging baskets, there's a waterfall of excess water, dripping through the bottom, watering your deck or side walk.

With EKO Planting Mix, that "Niagara Falls" becomes a trickle. Most of the water is quickly absorbed and held, so that your plants can be slowly watered over many days. That's the holding power, the moisture retention power, of compost.

EKO Outdoor Planting Mix is all organic and ready-to-use.
