Hi Shokkyy,  I've also used it mixed with compost for container growing and floral plants are growing strong. I've added nettle/comfrey tea only to allow bacteria in there to break the rock dust up over time. one of the up sides i've noticed in the cleared patches are worms in the soil - quite a few of them, nice and big.

Home made compost is very good provided you have sufficient amounts of it and over a long time it rewards you. my next door makes it own with layer of pig or horse manure, then topped with home vegetation rubbish, grass clippings. after 2 yrs of breaking down puts it on his plot for the past 15 yrs and over time his soil showed very good results compared to our own garden plot.
