We always recommend pre-treating any garden area (with hardpan or clay soils) with Earth Right Super Stuff for ease of planting and for better pore space in the soil. Use Earth Right for flowers and vegetables in the fall just as you do in the spring/early summer. By using Earth Right and Mushroom Stuff for second plantings, you will find the amount of time required for the growth cycle will be reduced 10% – 20%. This allows enough time to harvest your second crop on the vegetables. The Mushroom Stuff and Sure Bloom are recommended as a monthly application for all gardens.
