3 x Brunnings Propagating Sand 5L - Professional Free-Draining Propagation Medium (Bundle Pack)

Brunnings Propagating Sand is a premium, professional-grade mineral substrate specifically washed and graded to provide superior drainage and aeration for sensitive young plants. This 5L pack features a coarse, gritty texture designed to prevent soil compaction and ensure that oxygen reaches developing root systems, which is critical for successful propagation. Naturally sterile and chemically inert, it provides a clean environment free from soil-borne pathogens and weed seeds, making it an ideal choice for delicate seeds and cuttings. This propagating sand is expertly formulated to bridge the gap between heavy potting mixes and high-performance drainage requirements, helping to facilitate rapid root penetration and strong establishment. Whether you are striking hardwood cuttings, raising fine seeds, or creating custom succulent and cacti blends, Brunnings Propagating Sand delivers a stable and effective mineral foundation for professional-level results.

Best For: Improving drainage in seed-raising mixes, striking cuttings, and providing a gritty foundation for succulents and cacti.

Key Features

• Superior Drainage & Aeration: The coarse mineral structure ensures excess water moves quickly away from the root zone, preventing damping-off and root rot.
• Sterile & Pathogen-Free: Expertly washed to ensure a clean growing environment, reducing the risk of introducing diseases to vulnerable seedlings and cuttings.
• Chemically Inert & pH Neutral: Provides a stable growing medium that will not alter the nutrient balance or pH of your custom soil blends.
• Root Development Optimization: Creates a friable texture that allows new, delicate roots to penetrate easily and establish a robust structural foundation.
• Versatile Mineral Amendment: An essential component for "opening up" heavy potting mixes to suit the specific needs of Mediterranean and arid-climate plants.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
