A great alternative to perlite in your growing medium—carbonaceous, renewable and less dusty to mix. May be included at up to a third of your potting mix by volume. Also used as a mulch for container plants to retain soil moisture and improve microbial activity.

Parboiled to eliminate viable weed seeds. Improves aeration and retains moisture. May cause rapid surface dry-out even when underlying soil moisture is ample; be sure not to overwater. Remains stable during the average plant production cycle with minimal nitrogen tie-up.
