Mr John Scott has just retired from his job and is actively thinking of pursuing the hobby of gardening in his free time. He has also been a very busy person in his professional life, and really never thought how lonely he would become once he retires. His friend gave him this great idea of spending time in landscaping the garden he has in his house. There was only one problem. He has never spent any productive time in his garden, and all he knew was to relax in the lawn with a cup of tea and newspaper in hand. His friend gave him some assurance that gardening was not so difficult after all and he needs to follow three steps in order to start: 1. Buy some soil and lay it on the ground 2. Flatten it 3. Plant the trees and other vegetation that he wanted to put in the garden. Unfortunately, he got stuck in the first step itself. He was aware that he needed good quality of soil in order to make the vegetation grow healthy and in good numbers. He was however unable to choose between the following types of soil that was available with the soil suppliers: • Topsoil: topsoil refers to the soil that is available on the outermost layer of the Earth. If you start digging the ground, then you would be picking the topsoil itself. Topsoil is rich in natural chemicals and fertilisers. Topsoil is essential for plants to start growing. • Blended soil: many gardeners prefer to use blended soil for growing their plants. The benefit of using blended soil is that its composition can be customised as per the need of the gardener. Most soil suppliers would be happy to do this for you and prepare the blended soil that you would prefer to use. Mr Scott again turned to his friend for expert advice. What advice he got would be valuable for each one of you out there is planning to start gardening as a hobby or more seriously in your free time. You should be using what topsoil and blended soil for your gardening needs. The exact choice of soil would be dependent on the type of plant that you would be putting in the garden. Every plant has different nutritional needs. It would be ideal to search Google and read up on the Internet about every plant that you wish to include in your landscaped garden. A good soil supplier can also come in very handy and help you to decide as to how much of topsoil and blended soil that you should use for each type of plant. They can also guide you regarding the quantity of each type to be used, and will be more than happy to give timely deliveries of the soil should you need one in a hurry. It would be also highly advisable not to soil, as the menu and bacteria in it can cause the soil to deteriorate. Order topsoil and blended soil as per your requirement as and when you need it.
