## Overview

The 2 Quarts Turface MVP is a high-fired calcined clay designed specifically for bonsai soil mixes. It effectively retains moisture while providing excellent drainage, promotes healthy root development through air pockets, and simplifies the watering process for optimal plant care.

## Description

Turface is a high fired calcined clay that is one of the best additives for bonsai soil mixes or any other soil mix that requires moisture retention as well as great drainage. Due to its rock like consistency, Turface will provide small air pockets in your soil which promotes strong root growth and water drainage. Turface is also semi-porous so it will hold water without becoming water-logged. This helps when you are determining how often to water your plants because there is a visible difference when turface is dry or wet.

## Features

- High fired calcined clay perfect for bonsai soil mixes
- Holds moisture while still providing great drainage
- Rough edges create air pockets in soil for great root development
- Helps to take the guessing out of watering

    Turface is awesome for orchids too!
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2019*

This product is top notch!I needed some high quality substrate materials for my orchids. I keep phalaenopsis, oncidium, paphiopedilum, and many more exotic kinds. Some of them needed repotting this spring. I have epiphytes and terrestrial orchids. Every orchid I have is in a unique mix that is optimized to give each plant the correct amount of air, moisture, and nutrients.Some of my orchids are grown semi-hydro style, potted in solely LECA. I usually use Seachem Flourite which is almost the same as this stuff. I have many orchids flourishing this way.I heard about Turface in a bonsai video by Appalachian Bonsai and decided to give this stuff a try in place of Seachem Flourite as an orchid substrate amendment.I have not potted an orchid solely in Turface in the semi-hydro style, but I will do so to compare it to S. Flourite. However I have used it to add water retention and aeration to my orchids not grown in semi-hydro. I also use: bark, moss, lava rock, coconut chips, charcoal, sometimes perlite, all in different combinations.LECA products are an excellent addition to any houseplant potting medium, especially for orchids, which require specific amounts of air and water around the roots. It provides excellent water retention, can hold nutrients, and also allows the roots to breathe and never be suffocates, essential for orchids. Also, it really doesn't break down the way organic substrate materials do, which helps prevent acidification - something most orchids hate.Turface is highly lauded in the bonsai community. Since I love the "clone" Seachem Flourite, and I know this stuff will do me well for my orchids.If you haven't seen it I highly recommend watching Appalachian Bonsai video about bonsai soil and water retention to understand what this product can really do for you in your gardening and houseplant realm. It has so many amazing uses.

    Very Overpriced
  

*by W***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2013*

I ordered this two quart plastic bag of Turface, because its a very good substitute for Japanese ACADAMA soil. Turface and Acadama soil are both comprised of fired clay particles. For the price, you would think this soil is AT LEAST screened, to remove the small sized particles. ITS NOT. Now, here's the huge irony. I paided all this money for TWO QUARTS of Turface MVP, which weighed about 3-4 pounds. Then, I went to a local store, just 3 days after buying the TURFACE, and bought 50 POUNDS FOR 17 DOLLARS!  I figured "At least the small bag of turface is screened, to remove the small particles". I had my Japanese Black pine OUT OF ITS POT, roots pulled apart, and I'm ready to mix my soil. That's when i found out, that the expensive little bag of TURFACE wasnt even shifted to remove the small particles. Boy was I mad. TURFACE can be bought just about anywhere. So unless you live in the middle of NYC or some other metroplex, without a car, I would just go to a farmer's supply store, or maybe a landscaper, and buy this by the BIG BAG. TURFACE is used for building up the bases on BASEBALL diamonds, and landscapers use it to keep lawns well ariated. Its not hard to find. And if you have more than 15 bonsai, I'd say get a BIG BAG locally, cos over the next few years, you WILL go thru it.

    Perfect for fungus gnats
  

*by B***P on Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2017*

I have trouble with fungus gnats in the winter and one solution is to top plants with sand but I hate dealing with sand. If I use pea pebbles, the planter gets really heavy by the time I have full coverage. This stuff is perfect. Side note: it hisses when I water it, kind of hard to explain but I've had it as plant topper on all my plants for a couple months now and they're fine.
