Leca Horticultural Grit Ideal any Growing Medium add-on Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Premium quality grit, perfect for drainage and top dressing! - This is exactly what I was looking for to upgrade my potting mixes. If you grow plants that absolutely despise sitting in soggy soil, this horticultural grit is an absolute must-have. The quality is outstanding. It is beautifully graded, perfectly sized, and crucially, it comes remarkably clean with barely any of that annoying fine dust or sludge you often get at the bottom of the bag. It is also completely lime-free, so you don't have to worry about it messing with the pH levels of your prized specimen plants. I’ve been mixing it into my compost for some large, heavy container plants to drastically improve long-term drainage and aeration, and it works brilliantly. It opens up the soil perfectly, allowing water to drain right through the bottom holes so the roots can breathe and stay healthy. It also has a lovely weight to it, which adds great stability to top-heavy pots. On top of that, it makes a fantastic, neat top dressing for the surface of the pots, which not only looks incredibly professional but also helps suppress weeds and keeps the base of the stems from getting waterlogged. A top-tier product for anyone serious about their gardening! Review: Perfect to help soil breathe - Very happy with this grit! Nice and lightweight and mixes easily into the soil.
