Styrofoam ...toxic?...
I'm considering broken blue, and pink board insulation as a drainage filler for some of my plants. I want to cover the bottom 2" with small (1" chunk) pieces to allow my plants to dry out after heavy rains. It's not unusual to have an inch of standing water for 8-12 hours here on this flood plain.
Does anyone know of any toxicity issues that might come into play, and if not ...how come I haven't heard of others using it? I can't believe I'm the only one that's thought of it. Charlie P.S. I should say this would be for my bucket plantings. Last edited by Got Worms?; May 3, 2014 at 03:34 PM. Reason: Add P.S. |
