Garden Compost: MEdium fertility. Dig in or mulch.
Green waste compost: Low fertility. Dig in or mulch. Available from large-scale municipal recycling centers, likely low in nitrogen but high in potassium.
Commercial bagged compost: Variable fertility. Dig in or mulch.
Worm compost: High fertility.
Strawy animal manures: Medium to high fertility. Must be well rotted before being dug into the soil. Unfortunately, getting organic animal manure is difficult.
Spent mushroom compost: Medium fertility. Tends to be alkaline, so choose which plants to use it on with care. Can be sourced from organic mushroom growers.
Leaf mold: Low fertility. Mulch or dig in, depending on age.
Straw: Low fertility. Source from an organic farm if possible. Best as a mulch.
Bark chips and shredded prunings: Lower fertility. Best used as a mulch only, and on ornamentals, rather than food plants. If dug in, they can rob nitrogen from the soil. This caution also applies to horse manure with wood chips.
