How to use karuishi

Karuishi is usually mixed with akadama – e.g. 1/3 karuishi for deciduous trees and up to half for conifers and species that should be kept drier. Medium suits most pots.

Good to know about pumice

  • Pumice is the lightest type of stone and often floats on water.
  • The grains hold water in their pores but drain away excess water.
  • It does not break down, so the mix keeps its structure even when the akadama starts to crumble.
