Cranford Compost: a high
microbial active mature compost designed for serious organic farms and
gardens. It consists of clean green-waste, hay, horse manure, cow
manure, and preconsumer produce waste. Following an active thermophillic stage, the
compost is allowed to mature for 6 – 8 weeks. It is monitored
daily for temperature and moisture, and weekly for carbon dioxide
levels. The compost is turned depending on temperature, moisture,
and carbon dioxide levels to insure proper breakdown and pathogen
reduction. Cranford Compost is listed by OMRI for use in organic
production and meets all requirements determined by the State of
California.
Cranford's Granulated Compost:
a granular form of our highest quality compost,
approximately 3 millimeters in diameter, designed to dissolve with
water to incorporate itself into the soil and promote a diversified
microbial environment. After
application of Cranford's Granulated
Compost, water will dissolve the granulars and the compost will go to
work breaking down existing organic matter, fertilizers, and colonizing
itself into the root zone of the soil.
Cranford's Granulated Compost was designed to help re-colonize
a soil that does not have the opportunity to be worked up and compost
applied on a regular basis such as parks and golf courses.
Many landscapers and home gardeners are enjoying the ability of adding
compost in hard to reach areas and under mulched or ground covered
areas. Throw a handful or use a hand fertilizer (whirly bird) or
lawn fertilizer to apply. Heavy uses of synthetic
fertilizers, fungicides, and other chemical applications tend to reduce
significantly
soil microbiology thus requiring more fertilizers and other treatments
to maintain a healthy looking environment.
This cyclical process can be interrupted by the application of
Cranford's Granulated Compost.
Providing a diversified microbial product into the soil,
many
benefits can be achieved. Cranford's Granulated Compost
is listed by OMRI for use in organic production and meets all
requirements determined by the State of California.
Commercial Compost:
a clean green-waste alternative to manure designed for conventional
farms who utilize
synthetic fertilizers. High in organic matter and
has completed its thermophillic stage and screened to less than
3/8 inch.
Pathogen reduction (such as E. coli and Salmonella) and weed seed
eradication process also completed. Commercial Compost meets all requirements determined by the State of California.
Available only by special order. Please allow
8-14 weeks.
