The mixes 'made for citrus' have a tiny amount of sand, peat, and fertilizer. Peat moss is a good material but it is usually dusted coir that is so small it will decompose rapidly and steal oxygen from plant roots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-line-height=\"1.2\" data-hd-info=\"0\" data-margin-bottom=\"12pt\" data-textformat='{\"size\":\"10.50\",\"fgc\":\"rgb(31, 33, 36)\",\"type\":\"text\"}' class=\"zw-paragraph heading0\" data-header=\"0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy is pine used for potting mix? Because it is a waste product from our forestry industry and they have plenty of it and it is very light and cheap. Pine has some of the highest toxins and chemicals, and has its own chemical industry. These chemicals, in the potting mixes unfortunately are terrible for plant root growth. Also, the small wood particles decompose very quickly, this takes up all the oxygen and some nutrients from the mix and the plant roots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-line-height=\"1.2\" data-hd-info=\"0\" data-margin-bottom=\"12pt\" data-textformat='{\"size\":\"10.50\",\"fgc\":\"rgb(31, 33, 36)\",\"type\":\"text\"}' class=\"zw-paragraph heading0\" data-header=\"0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat We Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coco coir, rice hulls and sandy loam are excellent alternatives to traditional, commercial potting mixes, that after a few months turn into poison!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-line-height=\"1.2\" data-hd-info=\"0\" data-margin-bottom=\"12pt\" data-textformat='{\"size\":\"10.50\",\"fgc\":\"rgb(31, 33, 36)\",\"type\":\"text\"}' class=\"zw-paragraph heading0\" data-header=\"0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dr. Mani's Magic","offers":[{"title":"1-lb (3.75-quart)","offer_id":45144183406774,"sku":"ricehulls_1lb","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-lb (15-quarts)","offer_id":45144183439542,"sku":"ricehulls_4lb","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/0097\/5798\/files\/Ricehulls_product_photo.jpg?v=1779871658","url":"https:\/\/drmanismagic.com\/products\/organic-rice-hulls","provider":"Dr. Mani's Magic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
