SymSoil® RC, is a form of Robust Compost which has been manufactured for use by:

Robust Compost, is any organic material with over 1,000 species and include biodiversity across all 7 types of life. SymSoil® RC is loaded with over 2,000 species, mineral, humic and fulvic acid. Designed to be bioequivalent with the highest quality Soil Food Web compost, the biological specifications of each batch will be shared with the buyer.
For large scale farming applications, we usually recommend using compost tea, often in conjunction with adding organic matter to the soil and cover cropping. Talk to us about you specific situation.
Home Gardeners are encouraged to blend half a cubic foot into 50 lbs of conventional compost. SymSoil® RC is too strong to use directly, but will improve plant health, the flavor profile and nutrient density of food. Do not let RC exceed 35% of the total soil in your garden or planter.
