A smart buffer for water and nutrients!
Zeolite is a natural volcanic mineral that can absorb water and nutrients and then gradually release them back to the plant. This means fertilizers remain available for longer and are less likely to leach out.
It helps keep the soil airy, prevents compaction, and makes plants less sensitive to occasional over or underwatering. Young plants and species prone to over-fertilization also benefit from this natural buffer.
Benefits of zeolite:
- Retains nutrients longer
- Releases water gradually
- Improves soil aeration
- Reduces the chance of root rot
- Helps to balance fluctuations in moisture and nutrients
- Suitable for almost all potted and container plants
Usage
Mix approximately 10-15% zeolite into the potting soil. It combines well with compost, worm castings, coco fiber, perlite, and other soil improvers.
In short: zeolite acts like a pantry in the potting soil: it stores water and nutrients when there's an excess and releases them as soon as the plant needs them. This often leads to more even and healthier plant growth.
