Alocasia Aroid Mix

Introducing our Aroid Mix, a carefully crafted blend that combines tree fern, coco coir, and perlite. This unique mix is designed specifically to create the optimal environment for your alocasias. And works equally well for philodendrons, scindapsus, and anthuriums. 

2 different sizes: 

• 20oz: good for eight 4-inch pots 
• 35oz (jumbo size): good for three 5.5-inch pots 

Key Features:

New Zealand Tree Fern:

Natural pH Regulation: The New Zealand tree fern in our mix acts as a natural pH regulator, providing your plants with a stable and ideal acidic environment. This is crucial for aroids that thrive in slightly acidic conditions, promoting robust growth and vibrant foliage.

Coco Coir:

Moisture Retention: Coco coir, derived from coconut husks, enhances the mix's water retention capabilities. It ensures a consistent moisture level around the roots, preventing overwatering and creating the perfect balance for aroids that prefer a slightly humid environment.

Nutrient Absorption: Beyond its moisture-retaining properties, coco coir also serves as an excellent medium for nutrient absorption. This means your aroids will have access to essential minerals and fertilizers, promoting overall health and vitality.

Perlite:

Improved Aeration: Perlite, a lightweight volcanic glass, adds the crucial element of aeration to the mix. It prevents soil compaction, allowing oxygen to reach the roots and promoting a healthy root system. This is particularly beneficial for aroids, which thrive in well-aerated soils.

Enhanced Drainage: Perlite aids in drainage, preventing waterlogged conditions that can be detrimental to aroids. It ensures excess water moves freely through the mix, reducing the risk of root rot and other water-related issues.

Key Benefits:

Optimal pH Levels: The combination of New Zealand tree fern, coco coir, and perlite creates an environment where the pH levels are naturally balanced, aligning perfectly with the preferences of aroids.

Nutrient-Rich Substrate: The mix's composition ensures that your aroids receive a steady supply of nutrients, fostering robust growth, vibrant colors, and resilient plants.

Healthy Root Development: The well-aerated and well-draining nature of the mix promotes strong and healthy root systems, contributing to overall plant stability and vitality.

Water Efficiency: The blend strikes the right balance between moisture retention and drainage, reducing the risk of overwatering and ensuring efficient water use by your aroids.

Pro Tips: 

pH Precision: Ensure your aroids thrive in an optimal environment by adjusting your water to a pH range of 5.5-6. Our Aroid Mix lays the foundation, but your attention to pH details will make all the difference.

Supplemental Support: For unparalleled results, consider complementing our mix with silica and calmag. This dynamic trio creates a synergistic powerhouse, providing your aroids with the essential elements they need for unparalleled growth, strength, and vibrancy.
