Mix the sponge pieces with the soil
Then follow these steps:

Preparing the mix:
In a bag:
Add the desired amount of soil to a large bag or container.
Mix it all together:
Stir the cut sponge pieces into the soil. Mix well to ensure the sponges are evenly distributed throughout the soil.
Using in pots:
Add a little soil:
Place a layer of soil in the bottom of the pot.
Add a layer of your new mix:
Add a layer of your soil-sponge mix on top of the first layer of soil.
Repeat as necessary to fill the pot, alternating layers of soil and soil-sponge mix.
This process maximizes the benefits of the sponges in the soil, improving moisture retention and aeration, while ensuring a healthy environment for your plants’ roots.

The benefits of using sponges in gardening
Retain soil moisture
Sponges help the soil accumulate enough moisture without affecting plant development. 🌱 They act as water reservoirs, absorbing excess moisture and gradually releasing it as the soil dries out. This helps maintain a constant moisture level, which is crucial for healthy plant growth, especially during drought.
