Basalt rock dust

Excellent source of phosphorus and minerals for growing my asparagus and garlic and even tomatoes and other fruits. It makes everything bloom or bulb more.

Basalt Beginner

Hi Kis. I am new to restoring soil. This is my first time using basalt in a small patch of poor ground outside of my condo unit. I have added some to some container plants as well, but it is too early (2 weeks) to see any difference. I am wondering if Basalt or Azomite can be added to a compost pile, and a compost tumbler? Thanks! dave
