Fast shipping. Very well package.
Based on the Build a Soil suggestion, I purchased the small black lava rock as an alternative for perlite in my succulent & cactus potting mix. I've repotted a couple of plants that I recently obtained from a big box store, and they are doing great in the new formulation.
For several months now, I have used Build-a-Soil's black lava rock to repot my cacti and euphorbia collection. All of my plants have benefited from switching to a mineral-based mix, which is made up of the lava rock and Build-a-Soil's pumice. I especially like the fact that this lava-rock comes in a variety of sizes and contains lots of powder, which serves as a fantastic fertilizer.
Since black lava rock doesnt break down like rice hulls this stuff is as good as it gets for no-till. Expensive shipping but I couldn't find it local. Buy once and be happy.
