Surprising watering results testing different bonsai soils for water clogging. Avoid rotting roots of potted plants by choosing the best soil mixture for your trees – World of Bonsai
The results of my experiments
Flat bonsai shells Water absorption Capacity of own weight
Akadama 25%
after 3 days in the sun 3% in the shade 15%
Garden soil 52%
after 3 days in the sun 9% in the shade 33
Peat/clay mixture 60%
after 3 days in the sun 10% in the shade 50%
High plant pot Water absorption capacity Own weight capacity
Garden soil 37%
after 3 days in the sun 16% in the shade 20%
Flat trays have a higher absorption capacity, but dry out faster
Placement in the shade considerably reduces evaporation
The admixture of organic soils should be minimal, if at all
