Re: Re: green sand?

The lava sand is the good conditioner for clay soil. I've noticed that
Home Depot carries it now. But greensand is also helpful - I use both.
The lava sand for the texture improvement and greensand for the micro
nutrient and iron enrichment. Good stuff. I topdress my roses twice a
year w/ greensand also. They love it.
