For ny plants
I live buying this stuff as a soil amendment for my plants. I have a lot of tropical plants and love using this stuff instead of orchid bark at times. The plants seem to love it at well. I have bought this stuff several times. I was buying it at a pet store but the cost to drive to there and back doesn’t justify just going for that so finding it here is much easier and cheaper.

Great price.. even better when you subscribe
I buy this product very often for my crested gecko. It is a great substrate for any type of reptile. It seems to keep the smell of the reptile to a minimum and I would definitely recommend subscribing because you get it cheaper.

Good stuff right here.
Clean never a worry about Introducing pests into the enclosure. I have been using this product for over 30 years now and swear by it. Love the fact that Amazon gives it away. A definite recommended by.

Used in iguana cage
Worked perfect for my iguanas. Keeps moisture if you dampen it. Stays dry if you donât. I donât use for my bearded dragons, only bc I use paper towels for them and itâs much cheaper

Great for orchid use
I use this extensively for orchid potting mix. I have had better results with this medium to small chip bark than the over priced orchid bark.

Ottimo! Ne ho usati tanti in questi anni, ma posso assicurare che questo è il migliore. à 100% corteccia di Abete, trattiene bene l’umidità e gli odori, personalmente lo uso per le tartarughe, facilità tantissimo le loro operazioni di scavo e morbito, non graffia il guscio, trattiene bene la caloria, sopratutto non lascia residui del taglio della corteccia stessa, la maggior parte degli l’altri prodotti lasciano una sorta si segatura, questo no, è perfettamente pulito, lo consiglio vivamente. Tempi di spedizione in linea con quelli previsti. Spero che questa recensione vi sia stata utile.

Gutes Produkt, nur sollte die Rinde vorher gewaschen werden da sie ziemlich staubig ist ansonsten gibt es nichts zu meckern
