Hemp Hurd Soil Amendment

Using Hemp Hurd as a Soil Amendment

1. Preparation:

   • Start with a clean potting mix or existing soil.

   • Break up any large clumps to ensure even mixing.

2. Mixing:

   • Combine hemp hurd with your potting soil at a ratio of about 1:4 (1 part hemp hurd to 4 parts soil).

   • Blend thoroughly to ensure even distribution throughout the mix.

3. Application:

   • Fill your pots or garden beds with the amended soil.

   • Ensure the hemp hurd is evenly distributed, providing structure and aeration.

4. Watering:

   • Water the soil after planting to help settle it.

   • Monitor moisture levels regularly, as hemp hurd enhances water retention.

Using Hemp Hurd as a Plant Topper

1. Preparation:

   • Choose a clean and dry layer of hemp hurd for topping.

2. Application:

   • Once your indoor plants are potted and watered, gently sprinkle a layer of hemp hurd on top of the soil, about 1-2 inches thick.

   • Make sure not to cover the plant stems to avoid rot.

3. Benefits:

   • The topper helps retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

   • It reduces evaporation and minimizes the growth of weeds, if used in outdoor settings.

4. Maintenance:

   • Refresh the hemp hurd layer as needed, especially if it begins to break down or decompose.
