Peat Free Claybreaker
Clay packs closely and holds water tightly which prevents water from draining away- this can often result in poor plant growth. Digging in Peat Free Claybreaker will open up the texture, improve the soil structure and break up clumps. Peat Free Claybreaker is a mixture of sharp horticultural grit and Humost. This canny combination will not only help to break up clay and improve drainage, it will also put back into the soil vital nutrients.
We are often asked if Peat Free Claybreaker can simply be spread on top of clay soil. Whilst we would love to say yes and sit back and watch the bags fly off our shelves we must be honest! It will take a little more work and dedication than that. To reap the true benefits, Peat Free Claybreaker must be dug well into the soil. The good news is that you will certainly be rewarded for your efforts, as clay soils are potentially very fertile. Once you have opened up the texture the roots of perennials, shrubs and trees will be able to penetrate it at last.
There are two secrets to improving clay soil, the first is to add the right materials and the second is to dig at the right time. Summer is perfect as the soil naturally breaks into smaller lumps which are far easier to work with. So pop that Pimms to one side, ease yourself out of that deckchair and wage war with your clay clumps!
