Ingredients are altered according to the requirements of multiple types, this pack has a wide variation of ingredients, it provides a clean, fluffy substrate layer with lots of air pockets and moisture capturing additives, it has charcoal mixed in to absorb impurities in the enclosure and the orchid bark/coarse grit breaks up the peat base, this is a functional mix but also looks very natural when scaped/ decor is added, due to having so many earthy colours.

*Please be aware this is a composting material and will create heat/humidity within the bag, holes are pinned into each bag to avoid overheating/possible combustion (As with any compost or soil bags, please open the bag in a well ventilated area and avoid breathing in any dust)
