Here are some of the most commonly asked questions about RTN Soil. If you have a question that isn’t answered in these FAQs or on the website, please contact us directly.

RTN1 Soil

How Does RTN1 Soil Work?

RTN1 Soil is an organic mixture for blending with cremated remains. It safely releases the valuable nutrients that are locked within the cremated remains and allows them to be taken up by plant roots.

Why do I need RTN1 Soil?

Cremated remains contain valuable plant nutrients. However, because of a very high pH level, these nutrients are locked within the remains and not available for plant uptake. They also contain a high level of sodium (salt) that is harmful to plant life.

RTN1 Soil was formulated to lower the pH of the cremated remains and dilute the harmful effects of the sodium. Potting soil and regular soil will not significantly lower the pH to allow for the release of the nutrients.

How is RTN1 Soil different from regular soil?

Other soils have a higher pH and are not capable of lowering the high pH found in cremated remains to allow for the release of the nutrients. They will not effectively dilute the sodium by themselves.

What types of plants or trees are right for use with the RTN1 Soil organic mix?

RTN Soil can be used with any variety of plantings. If you need assistance with your selection, your local nursery can help you choose a plant best for your area.

RTN2 Soil

How does RTN2 Soil work?

RTN2 Soil effectively creates an optimum environment for microbial and bacterial development. At the same time, it is calibrated to be able to deal with the sudden flood of nutrients to such an extent that it massively speeds up the decomposition process. It is the speeding up of the decomposition process, and the RTN2 Soil’s ability to absorb the additional nutrients, that eliminates the negative ground contaminants created from cadaver burial.

Why do I need RTN2 Soil?

Due to RTN2’s ability to prevent the surge of fluids released during decomposition, it protects the surrounding area and water course from contamination. RTN2 will also ensure that all of the potential nutrients locked within a cadaver are released to the surrounding area in a way that is beneficial to all plant and insect life.

How is RTN2 Soil different from regular soil?

Each component that makes up RTN2 Soil is chosen for its certain characteristics and the properties they bring to the product. Soil develops naturally and its properties are determined by its environment. RTN2 Soil is organically engineered to possess the qualities required for its purpose.

How long does it take to decompose a cadaver?

There are many variants that will affect the time it takes to completely dissolve a cadaver. For example, the size and mass of the cadaver will hugely affect the time taken. Our research has shown that a 40 kilogram pig will pretty much be completely decomposed within 18 months.

What types of plants or trees are right for use with the RTN2 Soil organic mix?

Ultimately, once the cadaver is transitioned, all types of fauna will thrive.
