Pumice is ideal for use with cacti, succulents, and other plants that require excellent drainage and air circulation. Furthermore, pumice's porosity promotes microbial life while maintaining better soil structure than perlite. Planting with pumice also offers the benefit of a neutral pH along with a variety of trace elements.

There are many benefits to growing plants with pumice. It reduces water runoff and fertilization by increasing soil absorption in sandy soils. It also absorbs excess moisture to prevent root rot. Additionally, pumice improves aeration and stimulates mycorrhizal growth.

Pumice helps maintain soil structure as it does not break down or compact over time like other soil amendments. It also loosens clay over time to continue soil health. Pumice is a natural, raw, organic product that does not decompose or blow away.

To improve drainage for plants like succulents, mix 25% pumice, 25% garden soil, 25% compost, and 25% coarse grain sand. For plants prone to rot, such as some euphorbias, amend the soil with 50% pumice, or instead of amending the soil, fill the planting hole with pumice so the roots are surrounded by it.

For potted succulents, combine equal parts pumice with potting soil. For cacti and euphorbias, combine 60% pumice with 40% potting soil. Start cuttings prone to rot in pure pumice.

Liters are a measure of volume, not weight.

While this product is intended for succulents, Pachypus, Echeveria, Haworthia, Horridus, Euphorbia, cacti, Agave, etc., it can be safely used for bonsai, foliage plants, wild grasses, home gardens, gardening, and plants in general.

We look forward to your purchase if you are interested.
