Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

Is new soil safe for pets?

Plain soil and compost are pet-safe. Wash paws after digging. Avoid soil with added fertilizers if your dog eats dirt.

Answer

Do I need to be home?

Not at all. Specify placement at checkout, pick AM or PM, add any relevant notes. Works great even if you're away.

Answer

What soil for containers?

Always potting mix for pots. Garden soil doesn't drain or breathe right in containers. The difference is significant for plant health.

Answer

When is the best time to add soil?

Spring and fall work well. In Salt Lake City, target after Apr 25 in spring or before Oct 15 in fall. Don't work saturated soil.

Answer

How deep should garden soil be?

Flowers need 6–8 inches, vegetables 10–12, raised beds 12+. Given Salt Lake City's native clay loam, more depth means healthier roots.

Answer

How do I prepare the area before adding soil?

Weed first, then loosen the existing soil several inches down. This helps new soil integrate—important with Salt Lake City's alkaline lake bed soil.

Answer

Can I add soil in summer?

Possible but challenging. Heat dries soil quickly and stresses transplants. Work in cooler hours, hydrate heavily, mulch right away.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Add organic matter to new topsoil beds annually for continuous improvement. Even good quality topsoil benefits from compost, leaf mold, or aged manure worked into the surface each fall or spring.
