DE-NAT NATURAL NON-TOXIC BARRIER 10KG – Diatomaceous Earth-Based Substrate Shield
DE-NAT is a naturally refined barrier made from Diatomaceous Earth (DE), a silica- and calcium-rich compound derived from earth minerals. Designed to form a protective layer over your growing medium, it helps control pests, improve aeration, and enhance nutrient uptake. Ideal for organic growers seeking a non-toxic alternative to perlite or chemical pest control.
