1000 kg pumice in my driveway

When I came from home work yesterday a pallet with 1000 kg pumice was greeting me. Rune has come to conclude that moler and crushed leca is soooooooo last year. Pumice is what's rocking this year. So he talked me into getting a pallet of pumice and it arrived just after repotting season is over. How nice.
Since it was standing in my driveway it had to be moved. I stashed it away in 30 min and got a free work out. Rune was of course nowhere to be seen...
Pumice for pines. Not sure if I am going to use it pure or mix it with moler and/or leca or something else. Particles are from 2-8 mm.
Anyway, substrate is the way to go.

PS. 20 liter bag is for sale for NOK 200,-. Pick up only, no shipping.

Moler is still rocking, but it seems difficult to import more from Denmark (unless we buy very large quantities)so pumice is defenetly a good substitute.

You can use only pumice or mix it with other similar products. The main thing is that it is granulated and still retains some moisture.
