Soil Amendments

Soil amendments are materials added to soil to improve its physical and chemical properties, enhancing plant growth. They can include organic matter like compost and manure, which boost nutrients and improve soil structure, or inorganic materials like lime or sulfur, which adjust pH levels. Amendments help create a healthier environment for plants by increasing nutrient availability, improving water retention and drainage, and fostering beneficial microorganisms. Proper use of soil amendments leads to more productive, resilient gardens and landscapes by tailoring soil conditions to support specific plant needs.
