Maya Pumice

Pumice fine grade
Maya Pumice is an excellent growing medium. It allows oxygen, water, and nutrients to travel throughout plant root systems naturally and maintains a reserve of stored nutrients. Pumice is ideal for succulents and cacti as it dramatically increases water retention in sandy or clay soil. Allowing efficient distribution of nutrients and liquids. Additionally, pumice prevents soil erosion and protects roots from surface exposure. Its neutral pH level makes it suitable for any plant or growing conditions.

This material is excellent for rooting plant cuttings, helping avoid root rot.

 Fine Grade Pumice
Please note that the pumice we offer is fine grade by design. This product features smaller, finer particles compared to coarser grades of pumice. It is ideal for specific horticultural, soil amendment, and craft applications where fine texture is required.

How to use:

To amend soils: Add 1/2 cup of pumice for every 2 cups of dense soil, or as needed, to improve soil airflow and complexion and reduce the risk of root rot.

To root cuttings: pumice works particularly well for plants that rot quickly after attempting to propagate, such as cacti and succulent plants.

Other uses:

• Add a layer at the bottom of planters to reduce the risk of root rot, especially if your planter doesn’t have a drainage hole.
• Use as a top dressing for your succulents or cacti plants.

Notes: Rinse the pumice before using and store it in a dry place.
