Wessex® Lawn & Turf Seeding Soil

Our Wessex blend of Lawn and turf Seeding Soil is freshly blended and created specifically for the fast root establishment of grass seed. This is sandy soil which is very easy to work with and spread across large areas, for the best chances of growing fresh grass. 

Our Wessex® Lawn & Turf Seeding Soil is part of our Eco-Friendly. It has been labelled as such because the development of this Seeding Soil does not have a high carbon footprint due to it being locally produced and not having to be transported very far.

We also have nourishing garden soils, such as the Ericaceous Soil and Eco Coffee Soil.

What our Wessex® Lawn & Turf Seeding Soil is great for

This prevalent Seeding Soil is renowned for enhancing root establishment. It is quite sandy in texture, making spreading it across larger areas easier, enabling you to get durable, strong grass.

This Seeding Soil also adds natural, organic nutrients to your garden which are imperative for plants and flowers to grow strong and healthy. Our Wessex® Seeding Soil helps release its nutrients slowly to be more effective and is a suitable and environmentally friendly option for gardening.

Wessex® Lawn & Turf Seeding Soil also aid in improving the soil quality structure & fertility for regularly planting trees and shrubs, therefore making it a great option if you are looking to cultivate a healthy garden.

Within this range, you will also find Dutch Tree Sand, Farmyard Manure and 10mm Top Dressing.

Please also keep in mind that there is a range of Topsoils within the Wessex® Soils collection. This includes Blended 10mm Loam Topsoil, Fruit & Veg Topsoil, and Borders & Beds Topsoil.

What is PAS 100 Compost?

PAS 100 Green Compost is what makes up a large portion of our Wessex® Lawn & Turf Seeding Soil. This compost is present in all of our Wessex Soils, just in different quantities. 

You can rest assured that this PAS 100 Green Soil is completely recycled through unused soil procured from gardeners and landscapers. The process then involves a lot of thorough screening and mixing, which all take place on the same site in Dorset. 

The entire Wessex Soils range is peat free, therefore we can guarantee that you are getting some of the best soils in the market, perfect for domestic gardens and public parks and more.

The Publicly Available Specification that it has been awarded, is a widely recognised compost quality standard within the organics recycling sector.

To ensure the soil is at a high standard, PAS is set by the British Standards Institution which requires producers to establish a top-quality production policy.

This product status is given in recognition of non-hazardous waste that contains biodegradable materials only, making it safe to use in both domestic and commercial settings.

What does BS3882 mean?

The British Standard 3882 certification for topsoil has been invented to ensure a consistent level of top performance; a standard set out by the British Standards Institute. This standard is the updated version of the 1994 originally set out.

BS3882 is measured on three components: Soil Structure and Classification, Free-from Contamination and Fertility. BS3882 topsoil suppliers are also able to provide results of the soil analysis which includes the origin of the soil, the contamination parameters and written confirmation that the soil complies with the standard BS3882:2007.

All of the Stone Zone & Landscaping Centre's soil contains BS3882 Soil for multi-purpose use, ideal for all gardening and landscaping applications.
