Ground like substrate

[DaveyB]

Is there a substrate that will dry like the ground in your garden rather than go all fluffy like cocnut fibre?

The Zoomed excavator stuff gets rockhard if that's what you're looking for

Cheers. I'll give that a go. When it dries out a little bit and goes fluufy, the tortoises can't walk on it properly.

Can you spray this stuff so it can be dug or once it dries is that it?

EDIT. I actually have some of this at home. I've mixed it with the coconut but obviously need more of the sand to make it dry differently.

Hi mate,

Not sure if this is what you are after, it is a hogging and clay mix,



It sets like concrete,

This is what it looks like going in;



This is the mixing;





Good luck
