How to use lava gravel in your soil mix
Lava Gravel can be a wonderful additive to your soil mix. It enhances drainage, which is benefical to help reduce overwatering or root rot.
Due to its higher pH levels, it can also be added to your soil mix to increase the alkalinity of the soil.
Lava gravel as a fertilizer
You can boost your soil's nutrients by mixing lava gravel and worm castings.
Worm castings contain mycorrhiza, which is a naturally occurring fungi. This fungus works in harmony with the plant roots.
It helps to extract minerals from the soil and share them with the plant. This makes water and nutrient stress much less likely.
And, in return, the fungi receives sugars from the roots.
Lava gravel has a lot of the minerals that mycorrhiza love! By combining these two components, you optimize this exchange.
You don’t need much gravel; 10 to 50 grams per 10L of soil is enough.

Ben erg tevreden met mijn aankoop alhoewel de lavagruis erg fijn van structuur is maar verder perfect spul.
Fijne structuur en daardoor heel goed te gebruiken.
One of the best components for your plants, I recommend it.
Ik heb heel wat planten en sla zo nu en dan grondverbeteraars in. Echt fan van de puimsteen en mijn plantjes ook.
Parfait
