Fertilizer & Soil

Good soil is the basis of any gardening activity. The value of this relatively thin, humus-rich topsoil layer is already expressed in the almost reverential name "topsoil". Rightly so, because it is the prerequisite for the establishment of all vegetation: naturally occurring as well as cultivated by horticulture, agriculture and forestry. One means of improving the soil is the moderate, needs-based use of fertilizers - preferably organic, since with these fertilizers the release of nutrients is gradual and thus there is little risk of leaching and contamination of the groundwater.
