MUSHROOM COMPOST

MUSHROOM COMPOST FROM STANLER FARMS

Stanler Farms mushroom compost is a mixture of kraal manure, wheat straw and peat, made to an exact recipe for mushroom growers and recycled by us once the mushrooms are harvested. It is weed-free and high in nitrogen, phosphate and potassium. It increases humus in the soil, grows microbes and releases nutrients to your plants. We have recycled it into quality growing media since 1985, and we supply it in bulk from our Cape Town and Gauteng yards.
