Heavy uses of synthetic fertilizers, fungicides, and other chemical applications tend to kill soil microbiology thus requiring more fertilizers and other treatments to maintain a healthy looking environment. This cyclical process can be interrupted by the application of Cranford's Granulated Compost™.

Cranford's Granulated Compost™ provides more beneficial microbes and nutrients than other composts due to particle size and surface area. The smaller particle size increases the surface area providing access to all of the nutrients and microbiology. This product allows consumers to use considerably less of Cranford's Granulated Compost saving money.

In the beginning….Don Cranford, Cranford, Inc., Spreckles, California, realized that the micronization process could help him

to supply agricultural producers with compost tea. Until 1998, the tea was prepared in a large vat and

trucked to the fields in water trucks for application through spray equipment. "It was expensive to be

hauling that water all over California," says Cranford. He now sells micronized compost, which can be used

to make "instant" compost tea in the field. Now…..Tea application has proven successful with control of white fly and aphids on lettuce, tomatoes and other crops. Cranford is also working with some golf courses to determine the effects of a regular tea program. In the future…. we will keep you posted on all ongoing trials using this amazing product.

Text Box: Ideal for golf courses and parks where newly colonized microbes will start utilizing grass clippings for long lasting, greener lawns. Your patrons will appreciate the fact that a more natural approach is being used on the grass they play on. Unlike conventional compost, Cranford’s Granulated Compost™ will penetrate easily deep down to the soil surface, leaving no obvious signs of topdressing, plus it’s odorless.

Text Box: Input costs for farming have increased drastically over the last few years. Compost enriched soil retains fertilizers better. Adding Cranford’s Granulated Compost™ to row crops can significantly lower fertilizing costs. Apply during pre-plant or planting through Gandy box (row applicator) at the rate of 32 lbs per acre.

Cranford's Granulated Compost™ is listed by OMRI for use in organic production and meets all requirements determined by the State of California.

Read the Press Review - ”In Business, Creating Sustainable Enterprises & Communities”

“Tests last year showed that by mixing it with water and using as a foliar spray, the treated plants grew stronger and healthier. This was very prominent in low quality soil. We are recommending an application rate of approximately 40 lbs/acre/season. Stay posted for new and better uses of Micronized Cranford Compost”…..©1995, 2008 California Integrated Waste Management Board.

Compost and Compost Tea at Hualalai Resort By: Cindy Salter

“..Little by little, the landscape crew began to incorporate compost tea into their routines. Initially, it was used on plants infested with root-feeding nematodes such as pink hibiscus, using a combination of soil drench, root/basal

application and some foliar application.

Visible results were observed in a very short period of time after compost tea was applied. Once her staff heard that it worked on hibiscus, they began trying it on many other plants with similar results.....” from http://www.hawaiiorganicfarmers.org/newsletter12_05.htm

Add over 90 elements to your fertilizing program. This product provides a “complete buffet” from which the plant “takes up” just what it requires to realize it’s full genetic potential

EDITOR’S NOTE

We used this product prior to planting our test plot of our ‘no mow’ grass to ensure good growth; since planting, no fertilizers or weed control was necessary to achieve a healthy and thick lawn.
