beach sand can be good in small amounts, but the salt content is dangerous, especially for smaller plants. sand is good for aeration though, so using a pinch or two won't be so bad, but i'd be very careful about how much ends up in the final mix. id recommend you clean it or purchase clean sand.

좋아요 1개No beach sand. Only use horticultural sand or coarse sand. Or sharp sand. I think they are all the same just different names.
2개 좋아요Besides the salt, what is really the difference between beach sand and those?
0개 좋아요I’ve always read it’s the salt. But I’m sure there are a lot more natural additives to it, depending upon the beach you collect it from.
