Paddy Husk-Rice Hulls (Pack of 5Kg)

Rice husk, also known as paddy husk, is the outer layer of the rice grain that is removed during milling.
As a plant substrate, horticulture incorporates rice husk.
POROUS: Plants grow well in paddy husk because it holds water and is porous.
IT can be mixed with coco peat, vermiculite, and perlite to provide a potting medium.

BEST SOIL AMENDMENT: As a soil amendment, paddy husk enhances the soil’s physical properties.

Rice hulls resembles sphagnum peat moss and coco coir but are more sustainable

paddy husk enhances the soil’s structure, water-holding capacity, aeration, and plant nutrition.
When paddy husk is added to soil, compaction and erosion are reduced.

MULCH: In gardening, paddy husk can also be utilised as mulch.
It decomposes and releases nutrients to save soil moisture, prevent weed growth, and enhance soil fertility when applied to plants.

SOIL CONDITIONER: Paddy husk improves the physical qualities of soil in horticulture as a soil conditioner.

GOOD WATER HOLDING CAPACITY: Paddy husk maintains soil moisture and plant health through water retention.

Paddy husk is a source of organic materials for plants.

RICH IN MINERALS: paddy husk includes plant-growing nutrients such as potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium and silica.

Paddy husk has a natural ability to manage plant diseases and pests.

Growing media: Hydroponic agriculture uses rice husk as a growing medium.

MULCHING: Paddy husk mulch conserves moisture and protects the soil from erosion.

Eco-friendly:  Paddy husk can replace synthetic fertilisers and insecticides.

SILICA RICH:Many researchers have documented the positive effects of silica in rice husks on plant growth.

• How to Grow a Garden with Rice Husks: 
  Mix 10–50%  rice hulls into the potting soil for plants in pots.
  Rice hulls are very light, so they are great for rooftop gardens and other gardens where the soil needs to be made lighter.
