Do you want good food? Good food starts with good soil. The nutrition values of any crop rely on the minerals available to the plants from the soil. Many plants have specific requirements in order to grow and produce effectively. Our calcium bentonite is, for example, excellent for eliminating Blossom End Rot in tomatoes.Naturally colloidal and chelated, this organic mineral clay possesses an array of major, minor and trace minerals, all bio-available.
Further- the small-particle nature of clay benefits the water retention of soils to support the Best Use of all the applied NPKs and irrigation. What's not to like?


Ash and silts provide the same array of nutrients and micro-nutrients for plants as the clays do, but without the binder properties of clay. This organic soil amendment just did not get the pressure-cooker treatment to convert this to clay.

Our ashen silt has been tested and tried. We have analytical lab reports similar to our bentonite reports showing the mineral, nutrient and micronutrient content.


Here is a Trace Mineral analysis for this resource:

Calcium and iron are essential for strong plants. Strong plants are more pest and disease resistant. Our ashen silt has good levels of bio-available calcium and iron.

The array of major, minor and trace minerals in our clay and ashen silt provides the necessary nutrients for all plants, throughout their growing cycle.


Wildfires of both forests and grasslands continue to wipe out thousands of acreas of vegetation every year. What could possibly help to deal with these? Well- our calcium bentonite is a strong possibility. A thin mix of powder added or injected into a water spray, with or without other additives, would probably serve well to snuff the flames, and- this would add the benefit of nutrients back to the burned soil and support the regrowth.Anybody interested to check this out? We can call our new product possibility: SprayClay. What do you think? Want to test this?


Still in Development.
