Substrat Lechuza Pon - 18 Litres

Lava rock improves root-zone airflow and long-term structure, helping roots access oxygen while moisture drains in a more controlled way. It’s unique because it stays hard and stable instead of breaking down, so the drainage and aeration benefits remain consistent over time compared with amendments that mainly hold water or collapse as the mix settles.

Pumice is often better when you want long-lasting aeration without the amendment floating and shifting, because it tends to stay mixed through the pot and keeps stable pore space over time. Its unique value is improving root oxygen while still holding a thin moisture film, which makes it different from many other “lightening” ingredients that either drain too fast or move around in the container.

Slow release fertilizer is unique because it feeds plants gradually over time instead of delivering most nutrients all at once. This steady supply can support more consistent growth and reduce nutrient swings, but it also means corrections happen slower, so the rate and conditions matter more than with faster-feeding options.

Zeolite helps the root zone hold onto water and key nutrients so they stay available longer instead of washing away. It’s important because it stabilizes feeding and moisture between waterings, and it’s unique because it mainly buffers and releases nutrients over time rather than directly “feeding” the plant like a nutrient source.
