We primarily ship with FedEx, UPS, 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.
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.
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.
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 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.

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.
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

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

This special seasonal Fermented Plant Extract of Watermelon is made with love on a small farm near Paonia Colorado using natural probiotic farming practices. This farm has been operating under the direction of Miles Filippelli since 2016 for the purpose of producing high quality plant inputs for BuildASoil and the Fermented Plant Extracts product line. Lactobacillus bacteria are saprophytes, meaning they are decomposers, they break down organic matter. This trait is harnessed in the production of Fermented Plant Extracts where lactobacillus are fed specific nutrient dense food sources for the purpose of breaking down plant compounds and extracting them into a liquid form.
Derived From: Clean Mountain Water, Watermelon, molasses, sorghum syrup, Lactic Acid Bacteria sourced from local goat whey, and EM-1. This is then fermented until the plant matter is digested and extracted into the liquid and the sugars are consumed by the microbes to lock in the PH for stability and ease of use in the garden.
Why Use?
This particular Fermented Plant Extract is made from watermelons. Watermelon
Fermented Plant Extract is designed for all stages of growth, especially bloom. The
large seed bearing fruiting body of watermelon is rich in nutrients including vitamin C, B,
magnesium and calcium.

Lactobacillus varieties are:
Saprophytic - they break down organic matter and generally do not harm living things.
Antipathogenic - they are effective and beneficial microbes that outcompete and
overcome “the bad guys,” or pathogenic microbes.
Ubiquitous - they are everywhere!
Facultative - surviving in both aerobic and anaerobic environments.
Microaerophilic - preferring environments with less oxygen than typical environmental air similar to conditions in soil.
Rod shaped - bacillus means “wand” or “small staff”- the “magic wand” because
fermentation has an alchemical nature of transmuting raw materials into more nutritious
valuable preparations.
Heterofermentative - translates to producing a variety of outputs including nutrients,
CO2, yeasts, acids, and carbohydrates, which plants crave.

I absolutely love every FPE by Miles! I feel like my plants are all an extra XL in size since I’ve started using the entire line religiously. Miles seems like a great vibe also, miles has got my support long into the future thanks for the quality products!
Been goin back and forth with comfrey and watermelon every ten days. 1/3 strength. First time using ferments. I’ve seen great improvement with plant health and tricomes development. Bigger gland heads noticeable with the naked eye. Thick side branching. Im a believer from here on out.
It's wild how much difference you will notice the day after you use ferments intended for the plant's stage.
Just started using it. Looks good so far
