This blend is made of diatomaceous earth and montmorillonite clay (calcined clay), and is processed at high temperatures to reduce its size while maintaining its natural properties. This treatment creates a lightweight and porous substance that enhances plant drainage, aeration, water regulation, and oxygenation. Its natural pH balance and nutrient-holding capabilities make it a durable material for long-term use, making it ideal for plants like bonsai, cactus, succulent, and orchid as a soil amendment.

USES: Ideal for rooting plants, particularly haworthia species. Additionally, the non-floating nature of calcined clay allows for easy submergence or soaking of plants in water to eradicate pests. This product can serve as a growth medium and has a greater moisture retention capacity than solely calcined clay, thanks to its inclusion of diatomaceous earth.
