Turface is a mineral amendment composed of calcined clay, known for its ability to durably improve substrate structure. Its stable particle size significantly increases drainage and aeration while maintaining moderate water retention, which is essential for the hydraulic balance of potted crops.
Inert and non-degradable, it provides a reliable base for horticultural mixes requiring long-term stability. It is particularly suitable for root systems sensitive to excess moisture, where controlling substrate porosity plays a decisive role in plant health.
- Incorporate into potting soil to improve drainage and limit compaction
- Use in a mix with akadama, pumice, or bark as needed
- Adjust the proportion according to plants' water requirements
- Suitable for potted plants, containers, or structured open ground
- Can also be used to improve lawn water management
Applications
- Deciduous and coniferous bonsai trees
- Cacti and succulents
- Potted plants requiring a well-draining substrate
- Lawns and sports fields
- Technical horticultural substrates
Features and Benefits
Does not decompose, ensuring substrate consistency over time.
Promotes water evacuation and limits excess moisture responsible for root stress.
Maintains porous spaces favorable to root oxygenation.
Retains useful moisture without saturating the substrate.
Easily integrates into various mixes to adjust soil physical properties.
