Replaces Perlite

• Creates optimum porosity, drainage and stability
• Requires little or no adjustment to fertility and irrigation
• Dramatically less dusty than perlite
• Natural color blends well with other media components
• As in any organic media, there is decomposition over a long period of time, yet PBH remains stable during the typical growing plant production cycle
• PBH Nature’s Media Amendment is OMRI listed and WSDA registered for organic production
• Its physical size, shape and bulking properties produce optimum air-filled pore space, water-holding capacity and drainage, while its natural color blends with other media components
• Uniquely processed to ensure purity, PBH is sized, cleaned and subjected to a series of heat treatments that collectively sterilize the rice hulls and renders any residual rice kernels, weed seeds or disease pathogens non-viable
• Greenhouse-proven PBH offers environmental, horticultural and economical advantages

Container Top dress

• Topdressing with 1 to 2 inches dramatically improves weed control for just pennies per container
• Significantly reduces hand-weeding labor and expense
• Reduces potential for drought stress and watering
• Delivers economical, earth-friendly weed management
