One of the questions we get a lot is "What mix do I plant in my clay soils?" But, what is clay soil? Let's define it...

Clay soils are just soils that have a higher percentage of clay particles than silt or sand. Clay particles are smaller than silt and sand and tend to pack together which causes water to pool after rain events or from melted snow and runoff. Compaction from pedestrians or machines can exaggerate this packing of clay particles making the soil almost impenetrable to water. Clay soils can range from marginally clay dominant soils to almost all clay soils. OPN Seed's Clay Soil Mix is good for most areas where clay soils are found. The native species are adapted to grow in these soils and should do so.

Some things to remember:

Please keep in mind that this mix will take 2 to 3 growing seasons to fully establish and may display stunted growth as it works to establish. There are always exceptions and where this mix will grow is no different.

If the soil is very compacted, you may need to break it up before seeding. Contact us if you have questions about this.

If your soils are so clay based and compacted that they hold water like a swimming pool for weeks and months at a time and you can play a pickup basketball game on the other parts, you may need to amend the soils before planting.

Contacting your county Soil and Water Conservation District to get a soil test conducted may be a good idea in certain circumstances.

In most cases where these areas pool water for a few days and then it drains into the soil, this is your mix! Contact us if you have questions. We're here to help!

Good lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
Vaseline intensive care just makes really good lotion. I’ve never been steered wrong by them. And getting these on clearance was so good. I’m still on my first bottle, but I don’t put it on every day. Maybe twice a week. So the bottle has lasted seven months so far and there’s still a quarter of the bottle left. That means I have at least two years worth of lotion for $10. Can’t beat that. And it’s a good lotion to boot. The fragrance isn’t too strong. It absorbs really quickly and keeps your skin soft. The pump works great. I haven’t gotten any clogs or anything yet. Though, I usually don’t have those if I’m using it as often as I have been. Highly recommend would buy again… in a couple years.

Decent lotion, good for not so dry climate.
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3), Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This lotion smells amazing. I usually don’t go for scented lotion but I’m a sucker for sweet chocolate-y scents. This lotion smells like brownies. It’s not particularly mild so make sure you’re okay with it. It’s not a thick lotion in my book, has a yogurt consistency. You can feel the moisturizing effect as soon as you put this lotion on. It is a comforting lotion without being sticky or heavy, easy to absorb into skin. Although very nice and comfortable feeling when putting on, it doesn’t last through the next day in Colorado winter. I have to use it one more time on my legs during the day otherwise I get itchy. I apply this lotion at night after shower and I don’t shower put lotion on the next morning. If you do shower and lotion up in the morning then this might be good enough for a whole day. I’m used to applying lotions on damp skin but this lotion is very easy to spread, feels nice going on my dry legs as well. I love using it after washing my hands. I apply lotion every time I wash my hands and this lotion works great in that regard. It doesn’t feel greasy or particularly slippery when I wash my hands again either. I might try another lotion for winter once I finish these bottles but this is definitely a solid product, and I can see myself repurchasing in the future.

My Favourite Body Lotion
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I love this lotion so much. It's not greasy, and very moisturizing. The fragrance is amazing and smells delicious ! Unfortunately 2 out of 3 of the bottles had broken pumps when I tried to open them. I wish there were more for the price, so I switched to the Amazon Basics version. Is good for all skin types! The amount in the bottle is decent.

Smooth and Radiant
Size: 20.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I have been using the Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Lotion for a while now, and it is easily my favorite for keeping my skin hydrated. This 3 count pack is a fantastic value for anyone who wants to maintain a consistent glow without constantly running to the store. Why This is My Go To: Deep Hydration: The combination of Pure Cocoa Butter and Ultra Hydrating Lipids really works. It penetrates deep to heal dry skin rather than just sitting on top. The Perfect Glow: It gives my skin a natural, radiant finish that looks healthy. It’s perfect for summer or whenever I want my skin to look its best. No Greasy Residue: One of the best parts is how quickly it absorbs. I can apply it and get dressed immediately without feeling sticky or oily. Amazing Scent: The cocoa fragrance is warm and comforting. It smells high quality and lingers just enough to be pleasant throughout the day. Final Verdict: If you are looking for a reliable, everyday lotion that actually delivers on its promise of smooth, vibrant skin, this is it. The 20.3 Oz pump bottles are super convenient for daily use, and the formula is a lifesaver for dry skin.

Perfect for sensitive skin
Size: 1.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have insanely sensitive, blemish prone skin and have been struggling to find skincare products that don’t irritate my skin. This was recommended to me by my dermatology office and I’m obsessed. My skin doesn’t get irritated and I don’t break out. It feels amazing. Not too thick, not too thin. As an added bonus, it smells great.
