Gaia Green/Soil Conscious Basalt Dust

"Soil Conscious Basalt" (often associated with brands like Gaia Green/Soil Conscious) is a finely ground volcanic rock dust used as an organic soil amendment. It is rich in essential micronutrients, silica, and trace minerals designed to re-mineralize depleted soils and boost plant health over time. Key Benefits & Uses Nutrient Richness: Slowly releases vital micronutrients like iron, magnesium, manganese, and calcium directly to your soil. Enhanced Plant Strength: The high silica content strengthens cell walls, building resilience against pests, diseases, and environmental stress. Soil Health: Boosts root development, water retention, and microbial activity while providing paramagnetic energy to the soil. No Burning: As a slow-release natural mineral, it will not burn plants and can be used on farms, in raised beds, and in potted plants. How to Apply Application Rate: Can be top-dressed, blended into potting mixes, or mixed directly into garden beds. A common rate for home gardeners is about 1 to 2 cups per 10 square feet. Timing: Can be applied at any time of the year, as it does not leach out of the soil quickly. Guaranteed Analysis: Calcium 1.7% Magnesium 1.0% Iron 5.5% Manganese 0.08% Derived From: Basalt
