This larger grade is ideal for plants with more robust root systems and is a favorite among bonsai, succulent, and cactus growers seeking a dependable, long-lasting aeration component.
Thanks to its high cation-exchange capacity (CEC), zeolite acts like a slow-release sponge, absorbing excess nutrients and minerals and gradually making them available to roots and beneficial microbes. Perfect for use in containers, no-till beds, or as part of your custom soil mix.
Coarse 4–6mm grade for improved air space and drainage
All-natural mineral that won’t break down over time
Boosts nutrient retention and minimizes leaching
Enhances microbial activity in the root zone
Supports moisture balance for healthier plant growth
Ideal for use in cactus, succulents, bonsai, and organic garden beds
This zeolite grade provides superior drainage and nutrient buffering in one clean solution. It improves the aeration of dense mixes while holding just the right amount of moisture for plants prone to root rot. Whether you're building a mineral-rich soil blend for bonsai artistry or enhancing a succulent mix for better growth, Zeolite 4–6mm ensures consistent, long-term benefits that outperform traditional organic aerators.
What’s the ideal use for this size zeolite?
This 4–6mm grade is best suited for mature succulents, bonsai, and cactus, especially where enhanced drainage and structure are key.
Is zeolite reusable or long-lasting in soil?
Yes, it does not break down over time, making it perfect for no-till gardens and long-term container growing.
Will this help reduce fertiliser use?
Absolutely. Its high cation-exchange capacity helps trap nutrients and release them gradually, reducing leaching and nutrient waste.
How much should I use?
Apply 500g to 2kg per square meter in garden beds or mix as needed into containers for added aeration.
Does zeolite impact soil pH?
Zeolite is pH neutral and will not alter your mix’s pH balance.
