River Sand 水晶石 (稙得乐)

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Basically, horticultural sand for plants serves one basic purpose.
• It improves soil drainage and this is critical for healthy plant growth.
• If soil is poorly drained, it becomes saturated.
• The river sand for plants is very different from the sand in your child’s sandbox or at your favorite beach.
• Sandbox sand has smaller particles, which are smooth and substantially less gritty.
• As a result, it generally does more harm than good because it hardens quickly and prevents water from permeating through to plant roots.
