Sage's Secret (Acidophobic) Developing Bonsai Soil

$45.08 CAD

Mineral-rich and alkaline-leaning for acid-shy trees.

Combines basalt, lava, pumice, akadama, and trace organic nutrients for growth without acidity stress. Naturally adjusted pH for acidophobic trees. Ideal for junipers, olives, and other acid-sensitive bonsai.

  • Pumice πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ A lightweight volcanic stone that enhances drainage and aeration, preventing root rot and compaction.
  • Coconut Coir πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­ A renewable, pH-balanced organic fiber that gently retains water while improving soil texture and microbial activity.
  • Akadama πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅A fired clay found exclusively in Japan that retains moisture, supports root development, and breaks down slowly to improve soil texture over time.
  • Worm Castings πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Nutrient-rich organic matter full of beneficial microbes, promoting strong growth and improved soil biology.
  • Fish Mulch πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ A slow-releasing organic fertilizer high in nitrogen and trace minerals to support lush foliage and root development.
  • Leaf Mulch πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Decayed organic matter that enriches soil, retains moisture, and fosters microbial life for long-term plant health.
  • Lava Stone πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅ Porous and mineral-rich stone that improves drainage, anchors roots, and adds long-term structure to the mix.
  • Zeolite πŸ‡«πŸ‡·Chabasai grade mineral with high cation exchange capacity that stores and releases nutrients while helping regulate soil pH.
  • Pelletized Limestone πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Raises soil pH, while also supplying essential nutrients like magnesium and calcium. This increased pH improves nutrient absorption for plants and can enhance soil texture by reducing compaction.
  • Crustacean Meal πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ A natural source of calcium, phosphorus, and chitin to strengthen roots, support microbial life, and deter soil pests.
  • Wollastonite Dust πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ A calcium silicate mineral from Ontario that strengthens plant cell walls, boosts disease resistance, and gently buffers pH.
  • Huplaso Basalt Dust πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ A Canadian volcanic rock dust from New Brunswick, rich in 57 minerals, gently raising pH and improving nutrient availability over time.
  • Oyster Shell Dust A very high quality source of calcium consisting of 96% calcium carbonate, along with many micronutrients. It provides a steady release of nutrients and helps to regulate ph levels along the way.
  • Root Rescue Mycorrhizae πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Beneficial fungi that colonize plant roots, enhancing nutrient uptake, water efficiency, and overall root health.Β
