Gilroy Blend Mineral Amendment | "Good Soil"  | For Garlic, Onions, Potatoes & Brassicas

Gypsum Phosphate and Lava Rock Formula for Massive Bulbs, Tubers, and Cole Crops

The "Good Soil" Gilroy Blend is a high-octane mineral fuel designed for heavy-feeding crops that demand extra power. While famous for growing "Jumbo" garlic, this sulfur-rich formula is also the ultimate amendment for Onions, Potatoes, Broccoli, and Cabbage.

We engineered this mix to recreate the nutrient-dense loams of the California coast. It delivers critical nutrients needed to maximize bulb size, tuber density, and the savory "bite" of sulfur-loving vegetables.

The "Heavy Feeder" Formula:

  • Gypsum (Calcium Sulfate): The "Heat Source." Essential for developing the pungent flavor oils in Garlic and Onions. Bonus Benefit: Provides critical calcium to Potatoes to prevent "Scab" without raising soil pH.
  • Soft Rock Phosphate & Bone Meal: A dual-action Phosphorus complex. Fuels explosive root expansion. Big roots mean massive bulbs and heavy heads of broccoli/cauliflower.
  • Natural Sulfate of Potash: Drives energy from the leaves down into the roots/fruit, creating dense, heavy harvests that don't shrink during storage.
  • Basalt & Lava Rock: Volcanic trace minerals that remineralize the soil for vigorous growth.

Why Choose the Gilroy Blend?

  1. The "Allium" Specialist: Maximizes size and heat for Garlic, Onions, Shallots, and Leeks.
  2. The "Brassica" Booster: Cabbage, Broccoli, and Kale are sulfur-hungry plants. This blend fuels their growth and enhances their natural savory flavor.
  3. Perfect for Potatoes: Supplies calcium for thick skins (Scab defense) while keeping the soil acidic enough for healthy tubers.
  4. Soil Conditioner: Gypsum helps break up compacted clay soil, improving drainage for deep rooting.
  5. Clean & Safe: 100% Natural. No synthetic chemicals or fillers.

How to Use:

  • Garlic, Onions & Shallots:
    • At Planting: Mix 12oz per 12–15 sq ft into the bed.
    • Side Dress: Apply ½ cup per 10 linear feet when shoots are 6" tall.
  • Potatoes:
    • In the Trench: Mix 1 tablespoon into the soil at the bottom of each planting hole/trench before dropping in the seed potato. This puts calcium right where the tubers form.
  • Broccoli, Cabbage & Cauliflower:
    • Transplanting: Mix 1–2 tablespoons into the planting hole to fuel early root establishment and disease resistance.

Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it." — Psalm 65:9
