Simply fill up to one-third of the container with Better Than Rocks. Your potted planter will be as lightweight as possible, require less soil, and have excellent drainage for healthier plants.

Better Than Rocks keeps soil in the pot while allowing excess water to drain freely. Without adequate drainage, the bottom of your container will likely become waterlogged. This is detrimental to plant health. Even worse, it can cause the roots to rot and the plants to eventually die.

By creating an air pocket in the bottom of the planter, Better Than Rocks helps oxygen reach the plant’s roots. Experts agree that a plant’s roots need air in order to “breathe” oxygen – which is necessary for the plant to absorb nutrients.

Ideal Drainage + Oxygen to the Roots = Superior Plant Health
