Anyone use 'Turface' in their mixes?

Anyone heard of using 'turface' in their soil mixes? Back when I was looking into preparing soil for Japanese Maples there seemed to a be a crowd who liked to use this stuff. We also heard of using it for bonsai...

Couple years ago we sourced 2 large bags and have it just sitting around; In my other thread I was asking about my 1st mix but wanted to ask the broader question here of whether it has any value to a soil mix?

I use unscented clay kitty liter (same thing) calcined clay is awesome for MJ

sounds like Al Taplas gritty mix

How heavy handed are you with it in your mix? i.e. percentage wise? just a tad or add a bunch?

I've got plenty to use up... my current mix is listed over here

Thx!

I do 50/50 peat/clay

Thanks - I think I might throw a little into my mix just for the sake of diversity... and to stretch the batch a tad further!

I do 30% of my whole mix following cootz recipe. Works great in 30 gal pots. Got a little under a pound on 300 watts. I also use biochar
