Super Dirt™

Better landscapes start with better materials. We offer the absolute best your plants can thrive in.

Super Dirt™ is not bagged topsoil, fill dirt, or the generic compost blend from the big box store or the yard down the road — the same pile every other landscaper buys. It is our own custom formula, built to outperform anything off the shelf. It builds structure under the surface, and it is exactly what plants, trees and flowers want to thrive — naturally, organically.

It runs on one idea — if the biology below ground is healthy, everything above ground performs better.

Five locally sourced components, blended for Gulf Coast ground. Compost and humus bring organic matter and the carbon soil life feeds on. Screened topsoil gives it body. Washed sand and rice hull open the profile so water and oxygen move through it — instead of the dense, airless clay Houston is famous for.

Then biology goes to work. Bacteria and fungi turn organic material into food a plant can use. Roots grow deeper. Soil holds moisture without staying waterlogged. Nutrients release slowly. Plants establish faster and hold up longer.

We pair it with our all-organic MicroLife® fertility program — feeding the biology, not just the plant.

Most companies plant into whatever soil is there and fertilize afterward. We build the soil first. Plants, turf, trees, irrigation, mulch and fertility all designed as one system.

Better soil. Better roots. Better landscape.

You may never see what is happening six inches below the mulch.
You will see it everywhere else.

From the Founder · J Core

We teamed up with Mother Nature and built some bad ass dirt.

Innovation at root level.

The Blend

Five Super Dirt™ components.

Sourced locally. Mixed with Texas Best Mulch & Soil. Delivered by the cubic yard.

Biology
29.0%

Mushroom compost.

Rich, dark, and alive. Organic matter for water-holding capacity — and the biology that rides in with it. The microorganisms keep breaking material down and releasing nutrients into the bed, so the soil goes on feeding long after we have driven off.

Life
23.0%

Organic humus.

The fully broken-down end of organic matter. It holds moisture and nutrients where the roots can reach them, and gives the soil life a place to live.

Body
20.0%

Screened topsoil.

Screened fine. Body and structure for the bed — and the steady pH that lets a plant actually take up what is sitting around it. Sourced locally — not a construction-site stockpile.

Drainage
15.0%

Screened & washed sand.

Sourced and harvested locally, screened and washed clean. It opens Gulf Coast clay so water moves through the bed instead of sitting on it.

Air
13.0%

Decomposed rice hull.

Light and fibrous. It holds the bed porous so air and water keep reaching the roots instead of packing tight around them — compaction is what quietly kills a bed. The difference between a one-season bed and a ten-year bed.

The Promise

Great plants and bad dirt do not exchange well.
You lose.

Common fertilizer sits on top of the dirt. Moisture activates it, and right then it is about 30 percent less effective to every living thing in the bed.

Super Dirt™ matched with Root Juice is the best environment we know for a plant to excel — growth, production, root stability, recovery and bloom cycles. Better use of water and food. More resilience to drought, cold, disease and insect pressure. Better uptake means more return on every dollar you put in the ground.

The best dirt. Great plants that thrive. Food and nourishment designed to align exactly with Mother Nature.
