Aeration Blend
Premium Textural Amendment for Improved Soil Drainage & Root Health
Our Aeration Blend is a carefully balanced mix of high-quality, inert components designed to dramatically improve airflow, water management, and root zone structure in living organic soils. Whether you're building your own custom soil mix or boosting the performance of an existing one, this blend enhances drainage while supporting beneficial microbial activity below the surface.
🌿 Why Use an Aeration Blend?
-
Boosts Drainage & Prevents Compaction
Pumice, lava rock, perlite, and LECA create structural air pockets that promote water flow and reduce the risk of overwatering or root rot. -
Supports Microbial Life
The porous surfaces of these materials provide essential habitat for beneficial microbes and mycorrhizal fungi to colonize and thrive. -
Balances Moisture Retention
While increasing airflow, the blend also holds onto just enough moisture and nutrients within its pores to sustain roots without creating soggy conditions. -
Ideal for Living Soils
Especially useful in high-biology systems, this aeration blend helps create the loose, well-structured environment that roots and microbes love.
🪴 Ingredients
This mix includes: pumice stone, red lava rock, medium perlite, large LECA balls, and medium LECA balls—inert, pH-neutral components approved for organic growing systems.
Use in raised beds, containers, or garden soil—anywhere you need to improve oxygen flow, drainage, and root development.
