- Will these pebbles help with drainage?
- A layer on top of the soil slows surface moisture loss. For drainage inside the pot, mix grit into the potting mix or use a pot with a drainage hole; a stone layer at the bottom does not reliably improve drainage.
- How much area does the bag cover?
- About a quarter square foot at a 3-inch depth. Spread thinner as a soil topper, it goes further, but a large planter will take more than one bag.
- Are the stones safe for terrariums and succulents?
- Yes. They are natural stone with no dye, and pieces up to about 1 inch suit terrariums, dish gardens and succulent top dressing.
- Are the pebbles uniform in size and color?
- No. They are natural river stone, so size and color vary, with pieces up to about 1 inch. Expect a rustic, mixed look rather than a polished, matched one.
- Can I use them in a vase with water?
- Yes. They work as a vase filler and hold stems in place. Rinse them first if you want clear water.
- Is this a substitute for potting soil?
- No. It is a cover and filler, not a growing medium. Plants still need potting mix beneath it.
