Bonsaiboy Professional Bonsai Soil 10 lb. Bag (5 Qts.)

Description

Those who practice the fine art of bonsai have known for years the very
special qualities that professional bonsail soil imparts to soil mixes. Its
unique properties help provide free passage of air and water to root systems
while significantly reducing soil compaction. This unique bonsai soil is
produced by expanding and vitrifying selected shale in a rotary kiln at
temperatures in excess of 2000 degrees F. This process makes the soil sterile
and environmentally inert. It is a natural non-toxic, highly absorbent ceramic
granule with a generally neutral PH. It is dimensionally stable and will not
degrade like other amending products. There is no need for it to be re-applied
year after year. A good bonsai soil profile is approximately 25% water, 25%
air and 50% solid particulate matter. However, when soils are compacted, an
imbalance occurs. Solid particles are pressed together, and water and air are
squeezed out. With less pore space, soils become too dense for the movement of
air, water and nutrients, and the favorable environment for the beneficial
microbial activity necessary in a healthy growing medium, is lost. Our
professional bonsai soil absorbs excess water during rain or watering, then
slowly releases this excess water as the soil dries acting in effect like a
time release capsule. Use as a blend with your soil mix or by itself. 10 lb.
