Now you get to practice quantum electrodynamics theory --> renormalize (i.e., divide all numbers by 1.1).

Just bought some from wee tree, We shall see.

I'm looking for some too. Would 1/8 or 1/4 size be better for developing trees for feeder roots? I think 1/8 but I'm unsure.

3/16-1/4 is ideal for most the soil I mix.

We sell large flat rate boxes of pumice and lava. The lava is typically very clean. The pumice semis to stay a little more dusty even though everything is hand sifted. We sell both for $29.95 shipped. The large flat rate box is about 3.4 to 3.5 gallons or approximately 20lbs. Those that have bought from us have been very happy with the quality. I have attached a couple pictures for reference.

Wow......with the conversion factor ....it might even be cheaper to ship from the great white north.....we buy a bag (~15lbs) for 7 C$ (>5US$).....lol.....
needs sifting but the small stuff is great for air layers (plus shredded sphagnum moss).

Has anybody bought pumice from Hess Pumice Products of Idaho??

Yes, that's where we get ours. Get the 3/8" × #8" washed if you order from them. Our last order I made a mistake and just got the 3/8" minus and it was a lot of fines

Do we? Ah, you guys on the coast near the source have got it made, I searched and searched and couldn't find any at any price around here. Wound up bringing a couple cubic meters home in a trailer from one of the coastal mines. I think they charged me something like $50/m3, not bad! It's all about the transport I guess. It took forever to arrange though, one of the mines returned my phone call 18 months after I left a message.
