Hullgrow~ The Better Eco Alternative
Rice hulls are a more sustainable choice for soil amending compared to other inputs like perlite and peat moss. Rice hulls are a byproduct of milling rice while the mining of perlite and the extraction of peat moss have negative effects on the environment and are far less renewable. Rice hulls improve soil aeration, drainage and stability while helping to protect and preserve the planet's resources.
