“We used Biotic Earth on the Maplewood project. We had a lot of areas where we were having issues with getting growth. Colonial recommend this product and we tried a few pallets of it on a reclaimed laydown area where we couldn’t get growth no matter what we tried. After using [Biotic Earth] we had healthy growth very quickly. We ended up using it site wide and it sped up getting offsite by a few months due to the success. Even with a little bit higher cost on the front end, I saved about 40% on the tail end of the project due to touching areas only one time and the speed of application.
