Usage Instructions
To reset old soil, mix 8–10 L of TurboCharge Compost with 30 L of used soil. For optimal texture and aeration, add 5 L of perlite and 5 L of coco coir. This restores the soil’s porosity, moisture retention, and nutrient profile—allowing immediate planting. For no-till applications, apply 1–3 inches beneath an existing mulch layer and re-cover. Reapply as needed throughout the growing cycle when plants show signs of nutrient demand. Always store unused product in a cool, dry place with the bag sealed to preserve freshness and microbial viability.

FAQs:
What exactly is TurboCharge Compost?
A nutrient-dense, biologically active compost blend designed to “recharge” and reuse your existing soil with minimal downtime. It tops up organic nutrition and biology so plants bounce back fast between runs.
What’s in the TurboCharge Compost?
Minimum 6-month aged compost (cow, horse, turkey & mushroom manures), worm castings and zeolite—plus a stack of organic meals and minerals like bone & blood meal, guano, potash, soy/alfalfa/coconut/neem/kelp/malted barley meals, crustacean meal, dolomite, gypsum, volcanic rock dusts (incl. palagonite & azomite), humic acid, beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizae (Root Roids).
Is TurboCharge Compost pre-inoculated with mycorrhizae?
Yep—Root Roids™ is blended in, so you’re adding living fungi and beneficial microbes with every top-up.
How do I use TurboCharge Compost to reset old TurboDirt or potting mix?
Mix 8–10 L TurboCharge with 30 L used soil. For texture and porosity, add ~5 L coco and ~5 L perlite. That rebuilds ~40–45 L of lively soil ready to plant.
Can I just top-dress instead of mixing it through?
Absolutely. For no-till or established beds, lay 1–3 inches under the mulch and re-cover. Reapply through the cycle whenever plants need a kick.
Does TurboCharge Compost fully replace a base potting mix?
No—think of it as a recharge/compost super-top-up. Use it to refresh or top-dress existing media, not as the sole growing medium.
How much area will a bag cover as a top-dress?
As a rough guide at ~1 inch (25 mm) depth:
• 27 L ≈ ~1.0–1.1 m²
• 8 L ≈ ~0.3–0.32 m²
At ~3 inches, coverage is about one-third of the above.
Is TurboCharge Compost safe for veggie and herb gardens?
Yes—premium organic inputs only, no synthetic salts. Ideal for edibles when used as directed.
Any plants I shouldn’t use TurboCharge Compost on?
Avoid or go very light on phosphorus-sensitive Australian natives (e.g., Banksia, Grevillea). The bone/guano content can be too P-rich for them.
Will TurboCharge Compost burn seedlings if I plant straight into it?
Don’t sow directly into pure TurboCharge—it’s too nutrient-rich for tiny roots. Start seeds in a mild seed-raising mix, then transplant into soil that’s been recharged with TurboCharge.
What’s the application frequency for heavy feeders?
For containers and no-till beds, a light 1–2 cm top-dress every 3–5 weeks during vigorous growth works well. Watch the plants and reapply when color and vigor start to fade.
Can I use TurboCharge Compost with coco-based mixes?
Yes—coco loves biology. Blend per the reset recipe (add perlite for air) or top-dress on coco under a mulch layer.
Indoor grower here—will TurboCharge Compost stink up the room?
It has an earthy, compost smell out of the bag that fades quickly once incorporated and mulched. Good airflow = no drama.
Is TurboCharge Compost suitable for hydro or recirculating systems?
No—this is for soil/soilless containers, planters, and beds. Compost in pumps/lines is a headache.
What about pH and EC—do I need to worry?
The blend is buffered with materials like dolomite and humates. In a living soil with proper watering, pH self-stabilises. EC readings aren’t a great indicator in organics—watch plant health and soil moisture instead.
Will TurboCharge Compost introduce fungus gnats or pests?
It’s mature, aged compost—store sealed and dry to avoid hitchhikers. If gnats are common in your area, use yellow sticky traps and keep the top layer mulched so it doesn’t stay soggy.
Is TurboCharge Compost animal-safe?
It’s made from natural inputs, but pets can be attracted to blood/bone/crustacean meals. Keep bags and freshly applied beds out of reach so dogs don’t dig or snack.
Can I brew a compost extract or tea from TurboCharge Compost?
You can. A simple aerated extract (briefly steep and strain) is great for inoculating soil or seedling mixes. Keep brews clean, well-aerated, and use immediately.
Does TurboCharge Compost contain synthetic fertilisers or wetting agents?
No synthetics—just organic meals, minerals, composts and biology.
What sizes does TurboCharge Compost come in?
8 L for small container gardens or touch-ups, and 27 L for beds, resets, and bigger top-dress jobs.
How long before I can plant after a reset?
It’s ready to go immediately after mixing—no long “cooking” window required.
Can I combine TurboCharge Compost with your dry amendment kits or liquid feeds?
Yes—use TurboCharge as the biological and organic base, then fine-tune with dry amendments or gentle liquid feeds if a crop demands more NPK later in the cycle.
What’s the difference between TurboCharge and TurboDirt?
TurboDirt = complete living soil out of the bag.
TurboCharge = compost+biology recharge to restore spent soil fast.
How should I store TurboCharge Compost?
Cool, dry spot, bag sealed. Avoid leaving it open in the rain/sun. Use within a season for peak biology, though properly stored bags keep well.
Will TurboCharge Compost help if I’ve been running salt nutrients in this soil?
It helps rebuild biology and organic matter, but flush salts first and let the soil dry-back before resetting with TurboCharge.
Does TurboCharge Compost change watering frequency?
Often yes—recharged mixes hold moisture more evenly. Water to full saturation, then wait for a proper dry-back (top few cm dry under the mulch) before watering again.
Can TurboCharge Compost fix hydrophobic, crusty old mix?
Partly. The recipe’s coco/perlite addition repairs structure and air-water balance; the compost and humates improve wettability over time. Add a quality wetting agent if the old mix is severely water-repellent.
Will TurboCharge Compost attract wildlife in outdoor beds?
Freshly top-dressed beds can interest dogs/critters. Bury it under mulch and water in—curiosity usually stops.
Any handling precautions?
Standard compost hygiene: wear gloves, avoid inhaling dust, wash hands after use, and keep the bag sealed. Moisten lightly when mixing to keep dust down.
Can I use TurboCharge Compost in raised wicking beds?
Yes—mix it into the top 20–30 cm where roots feed, and use as a periodic top-dress under mulch. Keep the moisture line stable to avoid anaerobic zones.
How fast will I see results?
Top-dress responses are typically visible within 7–10 days (greener growth, faster new shoots). Full resets feel like fresh soil from day one.
Does TurboCharge Compost contain weed seeds or pathogens?
It’s a mature, hot-composted and aged blend. While no compost can claim “zero risk,” the long aging and diverse biology reduce pathogen pressure and help out-compete nasties.
Any compatibility issues with mycorrhizal inoculants I already use?
It already includes mycorrhizae. Doubling up won’t hurt, but dust extra inoculant directly on roots at transplant if you want maximum colonisation.
Can I use TurboCharge Compost with autoflowers?
Yes—top-dress lightly (1–2 cm) around week 3–4 if the plant asks for more. Avoid heavy, late feedings that could push excess leaf over flower.
What if I just want a simple “set and forget” reset recipe?
Use the 8–10 L TurboCharge + 30 L old soil + 5 L coco + 5 L perlite mix. Plant straight away, mulch, and water correctly. That’s the no-nonsense, high-success baseline.
