Pumice is a 100% natural growing media that provides an ideal balance of moisture retention, gas exchange, and draining capabilities. Using our pumice as a growing media can immensely improve the quality and growability of soils; it acts as an aeration system, retains moisture, and supplies and holds nutrients in the root zone.
Benefits of using ecogrower pumice:
Pumice is an excellent soil conditioner, as it is highly porous, giving it excellent water and air holding properties.
Advantages of using pumice in potting media and garden soils include:
the porous nature of pumice allows it to hold vital nutrients in the microscopic surface pores, which helps regulate fertilizer feedings. It can even be supercharged with nutrients before it is added to the growing medium.
excellent conditioner for soils that need increased aeration and drainage, as when growing cacti, bromeliads, succulents, or when rooting cuttings.
loosens the density of heavy clay garden soils, letting in the air and water plants need.
-Increases water retention in light and sandy soils.
makes tillage easier.
- Reduces crusting, cracking, flooding and shrink-swelling.
- Holds moisture in the soil, reducing watering requirements, yet pumice will not compact or become soggy.
- Pumice is inorganic, so it will not decompose or compact over time, meaning it functions continuously and can be recycled and reused.
- Pumice is pH neutral.
- Pumice does not attract or host fungi, nematodes, or insects.
Other Horticultural Uses for Pumice:
Landscaping Mulches with Pumice Stone. Coarse-grind pumice makes an excellent and attractive mulch for flower and shrubbery beds. The soil beneath the mulch stays moist longer and is less likely to compact from watering. Weed problems are minimized with a couple of inches of pumice mulch. Pumice does not break down, so does not need to be replaced. Our white pumice can also be color-dyed if necessary.
