Product details

How to use it

A proportion of 10 to 15 % in growing mixes is suggested, to be adjusted to the recipe. Zeolite can be combined with coco coir or worm castings. Continue to monitor watering and nutrition: its retention function does not replace these inputs.

Zeolite is not a complete fertiliser and does not guarantee protection against over-fertilisation. It may be harmful if ingested by animals.

Frequently asked questions

Does it replace fertiliser?

No. One of its roles is to retain certain nutrients; nutrient supply still depends on the plant and growing method.

How much should be added?

The suggested range is 10 to 15 % of the mix. Adjust it to the initial composition and the intended result.
