What we liked
- + Fired clay from 100 percent natural volcanic soil, with no fillers, dyes or chemicals according to the listing
- + The 1/8 to 1/4 inch grain darkens when wet, which the listing points out as a visual cue for when to water
- + 5 lb is enough to blend with pumice and lava rock for several small pots, or to use as a top dressing
Trade-offs
- - Same product as the 2.5 lb NOHOBE bag in this guide, so it only makes sense if you need the extra volume
- - Sold by weight with no volume in quarts or liters stated, which makes it harder to compare with bags sold by volume
