Key Features:

Lightweight and Porous: Pumice is a volcanic stone that provides excellent aeration and moisture retention without adding significant weight to your soil mixes.
Durable: Unlike organic materials, pumice does not break down in the soil, ensuring long-lasting benefits for your garden.
Natural Appearance: Preferred by some gardeners over the white appearance of perlite, pumice offers a natural grey color that blends seamlessly with soil.

Benefits:

Enhanced Aeration: Improves soil structure by creating air pockets, which facilitate root growth and enhance oxygen availability.
Moisture Retention: Absorbs and holds moisture while allowing excess water to drain away, preventing soil compaction and waterlogging.
Sustainable Choice: Provides a long-term solution for soil aeration and drainage without the need for frequent replacement.

Application Instructions:

Soil Mixes: Aim for approximately 33% pumice in your soil mix to achieve optimal aeration and moisture retention. Pumice can be used interchangeably with perlite, vermiculite, or rice hulls.
Equivalency Measurement: 1 cubic foot of pumice weighs approximately 55 lbs, making it easy to measure and incorporate into your soil mixes.

Usage Recommendations:

Gardens and Containers: Ideal for improving the aeration and drainage of soil in garden beds, containers, and raised beds.
Landscaping Projects: Suitable for use in various landscaping applications where soil health and drainage are critical.

Storage Instructions:

Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the quality and effectiveness of the pumice stone.
