How to Use:

1. Lightly pre-rinse/soak if you want to reduce dust (optional).

2. Add substrate layer of desired depth (depending on plants, microfauna etc).

3. Introduce your plants, décor (wood, bark, leaf litter) and clean-up crew (springtails, isopods).

4. Maintain moisture/humidity, occasional top leaf litter refresh, and monitor for compaction or mould.

5. Over time, feed microfauna (small organic bits) and refresh litter to keep the ecosystem active.

Perfect For:
• Live-planted terrariums & vivariums
• Leaf-litter + microfauna bio-active set-ups
• Enclosures with small reptiles, amphibians, spiders or inverts needing natural substrate
• DIY builds where hobbyists want a high-grade base mix without extensive custom blending
