Black Drainage Gravel for Terrarium - 5 kg

Description

This black gravel forms the drainage layer at the bottom of your plant terrarium. It catches excess water so the roots of your plants do not sit in moisture. The dark colour shows nicely through the glass.

Why a drainage layer

A drainage layer is the first thing you put in when you build a terrarium. It keeps the water away from the soil and the roots. Without it, your plants can get wet feet and rot. The gravel lets water through but holds it at the bottom, where it slowly evaporates back into the closed system.

How to use it

Pour a layer of 2 to 4 cm of gravel at the bottom of your glass jar or bottle. The exact height depends on the size of your terrarium. After the gravel, add a thin layer of activated charcoal, then the potting soil on top. The black colour stays visible as a dark band at the base, adding a clean look to your terrarium.

    Absolut zufrieden

    Ich würde den Flaschengarten jeder Zeit wieder bestellen. Wir haben mehrere für den Kindergeburtstag meiner Tochter bestellt und wir sind begeistert und die Kinder hatten ihren Spaß. Das ist einfach was anderes, was man auch länger behalten kann. Wir haben es knapp einen Monat vorher bestellt und haben dann den Liefertermin auf kurz vorher festgelegt. Das hat super funktioniert. Die Pflanzen waren alle in einem sehr guten Zustand und auch die Flaschen sind sehr schön und waren unversehrt angekommen. Einzige Empfehlung ist dass ich noch 1-2 Pflanzen extra pro Flasche dazu kaufen würde. Da ist so viel Platz und ich hatte aus vorsichtig nochmals ein paar extra Pflanzen mitbestellt, falls die Kinder was kaputt machen. Alle haben ihren Platz im Glas gefunden und jedes Glas war ein Unikat.
