I like to mix my castings into my potting soil mixes and add lots of perlite. My larger potted plants I will put around the top of the pot and water in. In ground plants I spread it around the root base water in, add mulch and more water. Make sure to put the castings under a layer of mulch for all in ground plants.

I personall put a shove or two of castings around each banana plant then add a large laywer of mulch. I do this 2 - 3 times a year.

Edit: Just wondering, how much did you pay for your castings? And how much did you get?
