Organic Mechanics Pure Rice Hulls serve multiple purposes in
gardening. They act as a natural inhibitor against annoying fungus gnats when
applied as a 0.5”-0.75” layer on the soil surface, creating a physical barrier
they can't get through. As a perlite substitute, these rice hulls can be
blended with soil, requiring up to 10% less volume than perlite to achieve the
same soil porosity and fluffiness. If using as a mulch for weed control in
outdoor containers, apply a 1" to 2" layer for best results. Rich in
phosphorus and silica, these rice hulls break down and build a super soil. When
used as a perlite substitute, Organic Mechanics Pure Rice Hulls last about
three seasons before completely disappearing into the soil.
