SumiBalls™
Imagine the Possibilities!
Sumi - definition of (Wikipedia): "a word for a form of activated charcoal
that is used in a wide range of applications, from grand-scale river
clean-up to the purification of individual glasses of drinking water
using little sumi “tea-bags”. Domestic use of sumi has become
increasingly popular in Japan owing to its remarkable properties,
including bacteria reduction, improved ionization (air purification),
and high levels of liquid and gas permeability. Popular applications
include floristry (reducing algae in vases), gardening (as a slow
release for water and nutrients), home air purification (absorbing bad
smells), and in fish tanks (reducing the risk of rot in aquatic plants
& fish)."

SumiSoil™ - an ideal growing medium for stronger plants and flowers
House Plants

Use your SumiSoil as an organic soil replacer, just like a general
purpose compost or soil conditioner; instead of soil, mixed with soil
or as a topping for soil. Simply add water and liquid plant food, and
listen to the activated Sumi charcoal fizz as it soaks up the benefits
for slow release direct to the roots. SumiSoil can absorb over 75% of
its own volume in water!
SumiSoil is great for promoting healthy house plants; as a
soil-replacer, SumiSoil will add around 30% extra growing space,
increase oxygenation, sweeten the soil and control the bacteria that
lead to disease and infection in plants. SumiSoil is clean and easy to
handle, and you can even grow your plants in pots without drainage to
reduce mess and mud in your home.
Patio Planters
Your SumiSoil will make an attractive display of pot plants -
indoors, outdoors and in conservatories - while controlling acidity and
improving oxygenation. SumiSoil is perfect for use in patio planters,
as a topping, soil replacer or soil additive.
Well-drained planters dry out quickly, and completely lose even the
most carefully balanced nutrients in a matter of weeks, flushed out
through the drainage holes. This can leave only dry barren soil, but by
using your SumiSoil in zero-drainage containers you can conserve water
and nutrients, increasing drought tolerance and overcoming the stresses
of 'feast and famine' that many plants suffer. SumiSoil increases
oxygenation and actively controls bacteria to fight root rot and
disease, and so there is no need for drainage with SumiSoil.
Hanging Baskets
Fill your hanging baskets with SumiSoil for drought-tolerant hanging
baskets that look beautiful all Summer. By sealing off the drainage,
you can reduce the maintenance required and make the most of SumiSoil
as a slow-release mechanism for the water and nutrients you add,
without fear of plant rot or disease.
Propagation 
SumiSoil is an ideal medium for fast and strong propagation; by
creating a near-sterile environment with high humidity, cuttings and
seeds strike quickly and reliably and grow disease-free and healthy.
Fungi found in the surface of traditional growing media can attack new
seedlings, however SumiSoil forms a highly effective protection against
this.
SumiSoil is available in smart re-sealable cardboard towers that can
easily be composted or recycled. The 1,500ml size has an easy-pour top
perfect for use with small propagation trays, and is just right to fill
one 6in. or three 4in. pots.
SumiBloom™ - for flowers that open sooner and last longer
Display
your cut flowers in vases with SumiBloom and enjoy longer-lasting
beautiful displays, in water that stays fresh and crystal clear.
SumiBloom is available in a range of soft colours, including pastel
blue, chalk, terracotta and charcoal, and looks great on its own, in
layers, or designed and mixed with coordinating or contrasting colours.
As you can see from the graph below SumiBalls effectively adsorb damaging Chlorine levels from municiple water making for a healthier environment for seedlings and plants and keep flowers blooming longer.

When finished, simply rinse and re-use for your next bouquet; you can use your SumiBloom again and again.
Use
your SumiBloom just like other decorative beads in vases of flowers,
but unlike other decorative beads, the active Sumi charcoal will help
keep the water fresh and clear - for flowers that open sooner and last
longer. Your SumiBloom will also reduce the build-up of unsightly green
algae, and actively control unpleasant odours from standing water.
SumiBloom is a completely natural and organic product.
AquaSumi™ - natural and lasting water purification for ponds and water features
AquaSumi makes a colorful filter medium for small gold fish bowls, large
aquariums, Koi fish ponds, or other patio water features and make a statement at the same time.
No
more green slime! AquaSumi will reduce and control the unsightly algae
that grows in ponds and water-features during the Summer. The activated
Sumi charcoal works just like in domestic water filters, trapping the
key bacteria and toxins so that your water will stay clear for longer.
AquaSumi can also help encourage healthy growth in your aquatic plants.
One gram of AquaSumi has a surface area of up to 2,000 square yards so one application is enough for the whole year. Each individual Sumi can hold enough bacteria to fill a skip!
AquaSumi
is a natural, organic and non-toxic product that is completely safe for
your fish and other aquatic flora and fauna. As a rule of thumb, we
recommend that you allow 5 litres of AquaSumi for 2,000 gallons of
water, and replace annually; AquaSumi is fully recyclable as soil
conditioner at the end of the year - simply dig into the soil for added
oxygenation and acidity control (Sumi has a pH of around 6.5). AquaSumi
is available in pastel blue or natural colours, and comes in convenient
5 litre containers, ideal for most garden water features.
Why
not try new colors of AquaSumi in your water for striking and unusual
effects? Choose from Pastel Blue, Charcoal Black, Chalk White, Terracota, Peach, and Natural Brown.
AquaSumi
can be used as replacement substrate for your fish tank. AquaSumi
will continually filter the water, and actively control the build-up of
green algae on the sides of the tank. AquaSumi is a natural, organic
and non-toxic product that is completely safe for your fish.
