Planting Medium—Gro-BrickTM
Natural coconut fibers ultra-compressed into the size of a brick. Combined with one gallon of water it will expand to yield a full nine quarts of ready-to-use organic potting medium or soil improver. Compact for storage and handling; and unlike peat it is a completely renewable resource—actually a byproduct of coconut processing. Medium has excellent moisture retention capacity, remains highly porous, is near neutral pH (approx. 6.0) and is free from weeds and disease organisms.
Vermiculite
As a germination medium, vermiculite virtually eliminates the problem of damping-off and maintains optimum moisture and aeration levels. As a soil additive, its numerous pores and large internal surface area improve soil texture and help to absorb and then to slowly release water as needed. The chemical nature of vermiculite also contributes buffering capacity and pH stability to soils. This is horticultural grade vermiculite—sterile, nearly neutral in pH, and free of substances toxic to plants. Asbestos-free.
