About the Monstera & Philodendron Soil Mix:
This blend combines the perfect levels of chunky aeration with medium moisture retention. Our Coarse elements of Bark, Zeolite, Lava Rock and Perlite mean there are plenty of air chambers in the mix perfectly suited to the medium/thick roots of Monstera and Philodendron. As tropical plants they do prefer medium moisture retention in our homes, meaning the mix will stay lightly moist for about a little over a week, and will slowly dry off to allow your plant time to get used to a short dry period before re-watering.

What Monstera and Philodendron want from their soil mix:
The one important rule for a Monstera and Philodendron soil mix, is that they want a chunky mix. A good soil for these plants provides plenty of aggregate and bark for roots to crawl around as they grow. The mixture should retain moisture evenly throughout the pot and dry out steadily in a medium period of time (1.5 - 2 weeks) whilst also being very well draining. These plants like moisture but not muddy soil. The aggregates in our blend helps to create a loose mix which avoids dense soil conditions, which is likely to lead to root rot. Monstera and Philodendron also do not mind being left in dry substrates for medium amounts of time (1 - 1.5 weeks in bone dry soil). However if left for too long in dry soil their roots can wilt and become non-functional,  increasing risk of root rot after the next watering. As Monstera and Philodendron are very susceptible to root rot, we have provided multiple levels of protection against accidentally overwatering. 

As with all of our Premium mixes a population of positive bacteria, mycelium and microfauna is present in the substrate to create the potted ecosystem which keeps your plant healthy! Enough nutrients for the first 2 months of growth is also in every bag along with our specialist nutrient storage component, Zeolite.

Great, except for the edible one
Flavor Name: Chicken & Original, Size: X-Small
My elderly dog and my puppy both love these bones. They are 9lbs and 4.5lbs respectively and this is a good size for them. They also like the next size up and it is manageable for them as well. The only gripe I have is the edible one, it comes apart in larger chunks (that are still very hard) and my dogs swallowed a few before I noticed how large the pieces were. I decided to throw that one away. Its been over a week and no negative side effects so maybe just me being overly cautious. For the price (gold box) just the other two bones were worth it. They last pretty much forever for my dogs, and I would say they are moderate chewers. 4 stars due to the issue with the edible bone.

My little dog loves these.
Flavor Name: Bacon & Peanut Butter, Size: X-Small, Flavor Name: Bacon & Peanut Butter, Size: X-Small
These are the perfect size, texture, and density for my 9 lb chihuahua (rescued, of course! :)) He has a tiny mouth with tiny teeth and very little bite force so he needs a chewybone with a lot of give. I've been impressed with how clean these help keep his teeth (it's the saliva flow during the chewing that breaks down any lingering debris and the action of the nubs against the teeth and gums helps to rub off tartar and plaque, if you care to know the *why* behind it.) These are ideal for dogs like mine, and since small dogs tend to have a lot of dental problems due to overcrowded mouths, I couldn't be more grateful that these exist. These would probably also be good for the many rescued puppy mill dogs, who are often small breeds, who have dental issues due to malnutrition and exacerbated by overbreeding, especially in females whose bodies often rob the jaw bones of calcium for the sake of the fetuses they carry, when the pregnant dogs aren't given an appropriately enriched gestational diet. That leads to the little bleppy tongues sticking out all over that we often see in the canine survivors of back yard breeding operations, puppy mills, and the like. There are a lot of these dogs being rescued and adopted in the U.S. right now and these would likely be ideal for them. (In case any adopters of these little survivors are reading this. :)) These are for gentle chewers only, and there are a lot of dogs who fall into that category. They aren't , however, for dogs with an average bite or higher, which is where some of the complaints you hear about these are coming from. Know your dog's chewing needs and buy the size that fits their mouth, tooth type, and bite strength. My dog barely puts a dent in these after a year or more of chewing (watch for any degradation of the plastic and replace as needed, of course.) For little dogs like mine, these are just fantastic and I hope Nylabone keeps making these type of chew toys to keep our dogs healthy. :)
