Zeolite can improve poor soils, and act as a permanent amendment and conditioner. It can increase soil cation exchange capacity and water retention in the root zone. Zeolite can also improve the use efficiency of phosphorus.
Description
Description
This IDA ORE Zeolite has superior absorption and adsorption properties and thereby reduces water and fertilizer costs by retaining beneficial nutrients and moisture in the root. It will also help minimize the amount of fertilizer that leaches out through the soil or water. The unique negative charge and porous structure of the mineral promotes an active soil that remains aerated and moist over time.
Zeolite also acts as a ph buffer in living organic soils.
It is also a great platform for soil bacteria to live on to increase their activity in the soil.
This is used in our living soil mix, and is a great addition to living organic soil.

Product features
Zeolite can have many benefits for plants, including:
- Improving soil - Zeolite can improve poor soils, and act as a permanent amendment and conditioner. It can increase soil cation exchange capacity and water retention in the root zone. Zeolite can also improve the use efficiency of phosphorus.
- Improving water retention - Zeolite can improve water retention in sandy soils and increase porosity in clay soils.
- Retaining nutrients - Zeolite can retain nutrients and increase crops. It can also act as a food storage facility for nutrients that plants can access when they are released into the soil water.
- Controlling fertilizer components - Zeolites can control the release of fertilizer components. For example, ammonium-charged zeolites can increase the solubilization of phosphate minerals, leading to improved phosphorus uptake and yields of crops.
- Trapping pollutants - Zeolite can trap significant amounts of heavy metals and organic pollutants in contaminated soils.
