Question about the loam

Beitragvon FLechdrop » 25. Jul 2006 14:04

Hello,

It is not totally clear to me anymore what, according to antstore, are the best mixing proportions of the sand/loam mix. I thought you switched to 1:1, but now I see 3:1 again in your product descriptions, so perhaps it was the other way around?
Also I'd like to know if your loam is grinded to make it finer, or just raw as it comes out of nature.

Greetings,

Michiel

I even believe it used to be 2:1 before?! So you went from 2:1 to 1:1 to 3:1? Wie so? :D

Nevermind, I've taken the finely grinded loam and 8 liters of loam on 25 kg sand, which seems to be fine.

I mixed may sand / loam in the propotion 5:1 and that's good, but when it's dry it's nearly too hard for the ants to dig in.

Next time i'll take the propotion 10 sand and 1 loam, that should be enough loam!
