{"product_id":"vulkaankorrels","title":"Volcanic granules","description":"\u003cp\u003eVolcanic granules are nicely light and manageable due to the small cavities in the rock and they absorb a lot of water because there are many small openings and pores in the material. Volcanic granules are formed during a volcanic eruption when the liquid lava, which contains a large amount of gases, cools so quickly that the gas bubbles do not have time to escape and become trapped in the rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike potting soil, which is extracted from peat, the use of volcanic granules is completely energy-neutral and can be used for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUseful steps for repotting your plant in volcanic granules.\u003cbr\u003eThis is quite simple.
