Wheelbarrow full of NAPA 8822, Now What?

[hemmy]

I dismantled the heat bed that I used for mature JBP repots. It was sand in the base and NAPA 8822 followed by wood chips. What are some other uses for that much NAPA? My truck leaks oil but not THAT much oil.

Pre-bonsai repotting is way over except for the tropicals. I guess I could save a bucket to use on young ficus that I need to clear out before next winter.

It’s DE, can I make a moat of it around my house and benches to keep out bugs? Spread it in the flower beds and yard to kill mosquitoes?

Anybody mix it with potting soil for potted flowers?

Simplest thing is to just save it for repotting in the future. One of the best, least expensive soil components out there. Works great as an ingredient in container plant soil. Good for aerating garden soil. Save the fines for spreading around the perimeter of the house. Make a miniature Zen garden.........you know, the one with the raked surface and prominent rocks.
