| An easy way to get rid of your old stonewool is to till it into your soil. It will improve the tilth of your soil - helping sandy soil retain moisture and breaking up clay soil. Below you will find step by step pictures of stonewool being incorporated into a raised bed garden for flowers.
1) Pick an area to establish your plant bed. If you like,
you can use old Gro-Slabs™
to line the perimeter of the bed. Break up your soil with a shovel
and/or tiller. Add soil or compost to fill up the raised bed. Add
25-50% old stonewool to the top 1.5 feet of the raised bed for optimum
benefits.
2) Till the stonewool into the top of the plant bed with a roto-tiller. You may need to go over the bed 2-3 times to fully break up the stonewool and incorporate it into the soil. You can add fertilizer to till in as well. |  |  |  | | | 3) Select your seasonal plants for the raised bed, or plant some seeds. Transplant into your raised bed and water really well.
4) Add mulch to retain moisture. Cocodan™
works well as a mulch. Always water well with newly transplanted
plants. Fertilize as needed throughout the season. |
