First time for me to add this veggie mix into my current soil. The rock melon seedlings, beets and red onions are very happy with this mix after 3 weeks since.

Tui Compost
Tui Compost is the natural garden ingredient - the staple in every Kiwi shed! Healthy, conditioned soil is essential to get the most from your plants.
Tui Compost adds nutrient-rich organic matter to replenish your soil with nutrients used during the growing season. The combination of organic matter, blood and bone and gypsum will: help break up heavy or clay soil; improve drainage in compacted soil; and increase water holding capacity in sandy soil. It also increases microbial activity, and encourages earthworms - a gardener's best friend!

Pea Growing Guide
Fresh home-grown peas cannot be matched by anything bought from a supermarket. Peas are suited to cooler climates or growing through the cooler months in warmer areas. Plant plenty of them – the temptation to enjoy a few before they make it to the kitchen is too much for some.
