what ratio do you use azomite to soil as in a two by four foot by 12" deep?

I layer the azomite in my dirt, because I don't have a tiller For example: I would put a nice dusting every 3-4 inches of dirt depth. this will probably use about 1-2 cups of azomite. OR throw 2 cups of azomite into the dirt and till the dirt.

I think I put about 9-12 bags (1 cubic foot per bag) of soil in each 4x4 square. I will definitely have to add soil again this year. I bought 2 of these of beds - they worked out great.

We're using it in a tea mixed w/other organic material. You can look up the amounts on Google: https://www.google.com/#q=how+much+azomite+powder+to+use+of+vegetables%3F

I would say half inch by half inch, but there is the possibility of the pellets clogging the hole eventually, I use cracked corn for deer and it works great.

Hi,I believe they recommend using the whole bag of their Dolomite mixed in top 4" of soil. Probably most important for plants like tomatoes.

I used this drill to plant several hundred tulips in a short time. I dug as deep a 12 inches, but it was nice fluffy garden soil.

As I am still adding soil to my 2 bags, so this is going to be a guess, at best! I am using 62-64 dry quart bags of organic soil and feel that I will probably use at least 1 full bag and perhaps another 3-4 quarts for both of my potato bags! Hope this helps!

Mr. EssnerThe mixture is 4-12-0. My use for the product is to add some fertilizer to a potting mix that I make. The soil in my garden is clay with a high pH so my potting mixture includes bone meal and gypsum.

Hi Sylvia! I think we used 2 regular bags of soil. It definitely wasn't as much as I thought would be required!

I am just ready to buy soil for my planter. Here's the basic formula: length x width x height--- 48" x 48" x10" = 23,040 cubic inches. Potting soil is sold by the cubic foot, so we need to convert the inches to feet .. so divide 23,040 / 1,728 " == 13.3 cubic feet of potting soil. Happy Planting !!!

I filled a 40 breeder fairly deep with one of these. That's 36x18. 75 is 48x18. So one of these will do it moderately shallow. Two for deep.

About 8"~12" in good soil with a fresh set of batteries...larger objects tend to read deeper... Example I dug a paint can lid about 15" deep once...

I used about 10 bags of 2 cubic feet. If you could find some cheap (but clean, uncontaminated) fill dirt, you could use less good quality soil on top.

I did a 10"x40" section. I turned the soil over with a cultivator and spread grass seed. I covered it with landscape fabric and seeded it again (maybe not necessary) but I got good results. Do not be in a hurry to remove fabric because the new grass will come right out with it. John F

one pound of Azomite, for me, does a 4' x 12' raised bed. I just sprinkle it on and let the rain soak it into the soil. Very easy application. I have six raised beds and use 6 lbs of Azomite plus I use a powdered fertilizer I get from Gardens Alive. The azomite puts in the minerals and that's what makes fruits and veggies "sweet" tasting.

It expands quite a bit. Using 3 gal containers you could easily do 12. I used it along with perlite and vermiculite and some Fox Farms Ocean mix, just don't over fertilize because it will burn your plants.

Each bed is 4 feet by 4 feet by 9 inches deep, so that is 4 x 4 x .75 or 12 cubic feet of soil.
