Create vegetable transplant mix

• 1 bag mushroom manure
• 10 shovels compost
• 3 shovels peat moss
• 1 cup (250 mL) rock dust
• 1 cup (250 mL) worm castings
• 1 cup (250 mL) kelp meal
• 1 cup (250 mL) crushed oyster shells

Mix all ingredients extremely well. At planting time, simply add half a small handful into the hole, and then top dress the plant with the other half handful. No need to worry about burning; it will slowly release. Water veggies in and begin your organic summer fertilizer program 10 days later.
