– Coarse grain size (4–8 mm) ensuring rapid drainage
– Non-reactive, neutral pH, stable over time
– Lightweight, increases the air retention capacity of the substrate
– Non-biodegradable, free of fertilizers and contaminants
Benefits :
– Prevents root rot and improves plant health
– Promotes vigorous and rapid rooting
– Facilitates excessive drainage by avoiding water saturation
