Bumper Crop is a soil amendment used for preparing or building up beds prior to planting flowers and vegetables. When preparing an existing bed for vegetables, you should spread a 2" to 3" layer of Bumper Crop over the surface and work it into the soil to a depth of 6". The area should then be watered well, before and after planting. If preparing a bed for planting flowers, a 1" to 2" layer of Bumper Crop should be spread over the surface and this should be worked into the soil to a depth of 6". When using Bumper Crop as mulch a 1" to 3" thick layer of Bumper Crop should be spread on the surface.
