Malibu Compost Reviews

Smells great, and seems screened. I almost feel they shred it before bagging up to make it look more consistant, but I don't know for sure. I mixed it 50/50 with charged biochar and added big-6 to it and a like 1 part rice hulls. and tons of organic fruiting fertilizer so they all charge the biochar. I hope it works out. I know biochar only sticks to positive ions and not the negative charged ones, so not every nutrient binds to it. Either way, it smells great and doesn't stink. I had to use MUCH more fert than I normally do and it didn't heat up much because of the huge amounts of carbon the char adds. I noted that fact down for future. I hope to only need like 10-15% of this to pumice and coco or peat substrate. This way my 6 cubic feet should make like 50 or so cubic feet. I will probably add much more than 10% though! Also using a couple trays of this for wormfarm bedding to see how that goes. I may update this review in the future

Shipping makes it expensive, but it is far superior to local, bagged composts around me.

I love Bu's compost. It has a lot of predatory mites in it and it helps keep the fungus gnats away (knock on wood). Ideally, I like to mix half Bu's and half worm castings when making flowering top dressing. But often I'm more conservative and use a less expensive compost in the top dress and then just give a sprinkling of Bu's on top of that. Wish it were a little less costly.
