  • FedEx Freight (Economy or Priority)
     Large or heavy orders that qualify for freight shipping will be offered these options. All freight ships via FedEx Freight unless otherwise arranged. If you require a non-liftgate delivery (e.g. dock or forklift available), please contact us in advance.




Carriers Used

We primarily ship with FedExUPS, and USPS. If you need a specific carrier for a specific shipping address, please reach out to us by phone at 855-877-7645, or send us an email to support@buildasoil.com, which will create a customer support ticket. You also have the option of submitting a ticket through the support.buildasoil.com site.




PO Boxes

Orders addressed to PO Boxes often incur additional costs and are ineligible for free shipping. To avoid delays or fees, we recommend using a physical shipping address whenever possible.




Shipping Outside the Lower 48

We do ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories.
Free shipping does not apply to most large or bulky items sent to these locations. Standard or custom rates will be calculated at checkout. Contact us if you need a freight quote for outlying areas.




Vendor-Fulfilled Items

Some products ship directly from our vendor partners. These will display accurate estimated ship dates on their product pages. Any concerns or delays with these items should be directed to support@buildasoil.com.




Freight Shipments

Freight shipping involves delivery of pallets via box trucks or semi-trailers.
By default, all freight is assumed to require liftgate service. If you do not need a liftgate, please notify us prior to shipment.

Inspect your freight order before signing the delivery receipt.
Count the number of packages and check for visible or concealed damage. Do not sign unless everything is accounted for and undamaged. Signing a receipt waives the right to claim missing or damaged freight unless noted at delivery.




Order Tracking

Tracking information will be emailed to the address on file once the order ships.
If you do not see the tracking email, visit https://buildasoil.aftership.com/ to locate your order using your email and order number. You may also contact support@buildasoil.com for assistance.




BuildASoil Shipping Protection

You can add BuildASoil Shipping Protection at checkout. This low-cost option insures your order against loss, theft, and damage.
If something goes wrong during transit, your replacement order will be fast-tracked through our claims system.

Even when protection is purchased, we request that you submit photos, videos, and any supporting evidence of the issue. This allows us to file formal claims with carriers and ensure the long-term success of our shipping network.




Claims Policy

All claims must be made via support@buildasoil.com.
 We do not accept claim submissions via phone.

To process your claim, we require the following:

  • A clear description of the issue

  • Photos or videos documenting damage, missing items, or incorrect products

  • Images of packaging, shipping labels, and box condition if relevant

Do not discard any shipping materials or products involved in the claim—carriers may require inspection.

  • Visible or Concealed Damage / Missing Items: Report within 5 business days of delivery

  • Incorrect Products: Report within 30 days of delivery

  • Lost Packages or Incorrect Delivery: Report within 30 days of shipment date




Carrier Responsibility Disclaimer

Once an order has left our facility, BuildASoil is not responsible for carrier-related issues such as delays, misroutes, or mishandled deliveries.
We will support claims to the best of our ability, but the final resolution is subject to carrier approval.

Additionally, we maintain zero tolerance for mistreatment of delivery drivers, delivery dispatchers, or anyone with the shipping/freight carrier. Any reported conflict resulting in a failed delivery will result in the order being refunded, minus the cost of shipping and a 15% restocking fee.

🌿 Willow's Incredible Growth Secret 🌿

🤩 Ever marveled at the rapid growth of willow? They expand so swiftly that before you know it, new branches have sprouted! 🌳💨

While their growth might not be instantaneous, they're among the champions of fast growth in the plant world 🌍. Behind this phenomenon lies science. The secret sauce? A unique plant hormone known as indolebutyric acid 🌱💪.

Next time you're trimming your exuberant willow, think twice before discarding those branches 🚫🗑️. They hold the essence of willow's powerful growth hormones, perfect for nurturing other plants. Experience the magic of this DIY rooting hormone, and watch your plants thrive like never before 🚀🌱.

📜 Tracing Willow's Roots 📜

The vast Salix genus boasts over 400 willow species sprinkled across the globe 🌐. Beyond its rapid growth, willow holds a rich medicinal legacy, notably as nature's precursor to aspirin. Extracted salicylic acid from willow bark gives us this pain-relieving wonder 💊.

Long before aspirin's debut in 1899, indigenous cultures have revered the bark and leaves of the willow tree for its therapeutic properties against pain and inflammation 🌿🩺.

Before the age of commercial rooting agents, the willow stood out as the go-to natural enhancer for plant propagation 🌱🔄.

📃 Crafting Willow Water: A Rooting Concoction 📃

Fermentation takes longer and locks in the benefits for long term storage but you can also make a faster version at home.

Discover the art of brewing willow branch tea, your secret weapon for robust plant propagations 🌱💦.

🌿 Willow Water Rooting Solution 🌿

Materials:

  • Young willow branches (ideally those that are no thicker than a pencil and from the current year's growth)
  • A large container or bucket
  • Boiling water
  • Glass jar or bottle for storing

Procedure:

  1. Collection of Willow Branches:
    • Search for a willow tree and cut some young, healthy branches. Remember, the newer the growth, the higher the concentration of the rooting hormone (indolebutyric acid).
  2. Preparation of the Branches:
    • Remove all the leaves from the branches.
    • Cut the branches into small pieces, around 1-2 inches long.
  3. Steeping the Willow Pieces:
    • Place the cut willow pieces into your container or bucket.
    • Pour boiling water over the willow pieces, ensuring they are fully submerged.
    • Let the mixture sit and steep for 12-24 hours. This allows the water to extract the rooting hormone from the willow pieces.
  4. Straining and Storing:
    • After steeping, strain the willow pieces out, collecting the water in a glass jar or bottle.
    • Your willow water rooting solution is now ready to use!
  5. Application:
    • For plant cuttings: Soak the base of your cuttings in the willow water for several hours before planting them.
    • For already potted plants: Water them with the willow water solution to encourage root growth.
    • As a growth boost: Occasionally water your plants with willow water as it not only promotes rooting but also can give plants a growth boost due to the presence of beneficial compounds.

Storage and Shelf Life:

It's best to store your willow water in the refrigerator if you're not using it immediately. Use within 2 months for best results. After this period, the effectiveness may decrease.

If you instead opt to purchase our Fermented Version the shelf life is MUCH longer and will last years at room temperature.

Benefits of Willow Water:

  • Willow water is a natural alternative to commercial rooting hormones.
  • It contains salicylic acid, which can help protect plants from diseases.
  • The solution encourages root growth and can boost the overall health of the plant.

Buy the Gallon or you'll end up buying one later anyway.

I almost bought the quart size or a half gallon until I realized the savings plus the frequency and amount I'd be using.

I've been using "Synthganic"/Conventional methods for over 2 decades. However, after changing over to full organic inputs last season I have to admit that there's a lot more room for error, but if you stay ahead of your plants' needs you'll have much better results. After using ferments I always notice a boom the following day, if not later that day. Now, depending on their growth stage, I just add an ounce of willow ferment (and others) to each gallon of water. Granted at 3.5 gallons a pop that adds up fairly quickly.

Also, I grabbed some Thrive and a couple of other ferments to save even more. Can't beat that. It can be a little expensive but the results are phenomenal.

Thanks to everyone at or connected to BAS!

Great for rooting nutrients.

Willow contains nutrients that are beneficial throughout the grow, but have particular benefits to seedlings and rooting cuts.
