LAVA SAND

Lava sand is crushed scoria, a reddish brown to black volcanic slag. It has a texture full of holes. Those holes represent individual, isolated gas bubbles in the original molten rock and aren’t interconnected, one with another. Lava sand is the most popular rock material.

Considered by many, but not all, to be a excellent source of energy for the soil. Lava sand makes soil nutrients more available to plant roots.

Lava Sand increases the water-holding capacity of the soil at the same time separating heavy clay particles. Gardeners and professional crop growers have discovered how useful it is especially as a mineral supplement especially in an organic program.

Lava sand may be hard to find, but we have it here at
LAVASAND.

Lava sand as a soil amendment or additive helps with the following:

  • Provides a high cation exchange capacity in the soil
  • Helps release or acts as a catalyst to help release nutrients to the plants
  • Has a high water retaining ability.
  • With it's high paramagnetic energy it acts as plant growth stimulate and helps reduce pest problems.
