Questions & Answers
Weight of one bag?
Shar, a 0.5 cu. ft. bag of red lava rock typically weighs approximately 15–20 lbs, as it is a lightweight material.
Can this be used as a soil amended for outdoor potted tropical plants
Yes — red lava landscape rock can be used as a soil amendment for outdoor potted tropical plants, but only in small amounts. Crushed lava rock improves drainage, aeration, and root oxygen, which tropicals like, but it has no nutrients, so it should be mixed lightly into potting soil (about 10–20% by volume) or used as a drainage layer, not as a primary soil component. Too much can make the mix dry out quickly and stress moisture‑loving plants.
Is the red lava rock safe for organic container gardening
Rebecca Yes — red lava rock is generally safe for organic container gardening. It’s simply natural volcanic rock and is inert, meaning it won’t harm plants. Just rinse well to remove dust before using.
Can these red lava rocks be used in a sauna?
Can I use these in my potting mix in my house plants?
-Nicole, it's generally not recommended for use in potting mix for houseplants. Lava rock can alter the pH of the soil, which might not be ideal for many houseplants. For houseplants, it's best to use a potting mix specifically designed for their needs, which often includes ingredients like peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite to ensure proper drainage and aeration. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please contact customer support at 1-800-820-2342.
Why is the color coming off?
-Larry, the Vigoro Decorative Stone Red Lava Landscape Rock is naturally colored and will not fade, wash, or blow away. It is not dyed, so the color should not come off. Please contact customer support directly, so we may aid in a solution, 1-800-820-2342.
Can you use in a grill
Mike. Thank you for the question. No, we advise using rock that is recommended for the grill. Red Decorative Stone Lava is not rated for use in with grills.
Is this product non- toxic and chemical free? I'm looking for decorative mulch/rock but using around fruit trees.
Lanza. Thank you for the question. The Lava Rock can be placed around trees, shrubs, decks and driveways to accent your home landscape.
