Diatomaceous Earth

Diatomaceous Earth is a naturally occurring sedimentary rock, consisting of fossilized remains of diatoms - silica rich, single-celled algae. This soil amendment encourages retention of water and nutrients, while draining freely and allowing high oxygen circulation within the growing medium.

Directions for Use:

To help improve soil structure and water holding capacity, apply 500 g per m2 of area (1 lb per 10 ft2), and mix thoroughly into soil. Apply once per year.

Store in a cool, dry location, out of direct sunlight. Protect from frost and other climatic extremes. Seal packaging between uses.

Great for use if you have pests such a thrips.
