Getting ready for a busy Feb with most of my 2016 additions needing reply on better soil. I have not been able to source Acadama here nor in nearby countries, but was able to find pumice and clay balls of small and medium size. So far tried a few trees in straight pumice and while they did well I prefer a soil with a bit more moisture retention and my soil is dry few hours after watering. Adding 1/3 clay balls provided a bit more water retention but not as much as I wanted. Would prefer to add a moisture retaining component at least to catch the fertilizer that is going straight through.
Want to avoid using bark or regular soil to keep it inorganic... So considering liter which I remember reading can be used and assume will offer a bit of retention.
Which liter would you suggest use (any specific brand or type) any specific ones to avoid?
What ratio with pumice and clay balls would you advise?
Thanks
