Hey, I's reading the reviews, and did my learnin' abouts making a gooder soil fo's my veggie garden.
So I's bought this.
It do be comin' here fast, and not all's broken bad like somes packages. So, cool.
But whens I goes to use it, it be all funky massive chunks. I figgur 2# for my 6 yds of garden dirts I's needin'.
But I hads to spend a hours breakin' its down using rocks. Had no other ways - it not be breaking up in my hands.
So's I got in touch with the dudes here. Theys tried to help, but when I shows them a piccure of the chunks and how I's be disappointed, they's wanted me to buys more stuff from them, at a measly discount.
Ands they's be tellin' me, "We actually have to break it down more when it comes from our supplier."
Well, they's be doin' a piss poor job at it.
I doubts theys even posts this review after seein' it. Thoughs I nots be swearin' or anythin' else bads.
I asked thems nicely for, what I's think is fairs compensation.
But they's ignored me.
Here be a photo of the chunks, bain't.
You gonna put this inna you's container plants? Goods luck.
Never buyin' from these dudes again. Can't be trustin' them.
P.S. - Why's there be no other bad reviews on their's entire site?
First off, so sorry this didn't live up to your expectations. We will be updating the website with better photos and description. Terviva is a great company producing a really clean sustainable product but it is a chunky seed meal. For what it's worth, we use it chunky in our soil recipes and it does turn into a good final product. That being said, I totally understand your not wanting to use something so chunky. What can we do to make this right? I want you to be happy regardless.

Hard to find good karanja at any of the stores near me. I am so thankful B.A.S. has everything I need!

Thank you so much for everything you guys do. The quality in your products speaks for itself. I can’t tell you the number of times people have asked where to get quality inputs and before you guys I wouldn’t suggest ANYONE. Now I suggest you to EVERYONE. Also the time and effort you guys put into making sure your customer not only have access to the products but access to the information To understand the use of these products. Your YouTube channel is a fantastic wealth of knowledge.

Without a doubt Karanja meal (neé cake) is one of my favorite soil amendments going back over 10 years. The karanja tree (pomgamia) is a legume meaning that it's more closely related to alfalfa than the neem tree.
I think of karanja meal as alfalfa meal on steroids.
Highly recommended without reservation!

Very nice looking. Good pricing, affordable and fast shipping. BOS has become my go-to.

I thought this was a redundant product, same as neem meal. I was very wrong! My worms love it! I just recently started using it and will use it when I amend my soil after cycles. Useful to have!

I'm fairly new to working with karnaja but I've heard of its many benefits and had to incorporate it into my soil mix. Looks, feels, smells high quality. The plants seem to love it!
Gregory D.
Makes neem meal smell terrible in comparison!
Kim B.
Very consistent product, worms love it!
Steven B.
Another of the inputs to Coots mix, wouldn't get anywhere else, only Buildasoil.com. Maybe the only place to get good Karanja.
Daniel T.
At 2:1 ratio or 33% karanja and 66%neem as a soil amendment or in your neem tea brew for IPM.
Addison L.
Smells amazing, fantastic food for the soil. Comes in clumps that can either be powdered/crushed and topdressed or transplant with karanja cake underneath with great results. Fantastic stuff from Terviva!
