No one to even tell me I'm crazy?
I just read a post where Jerry M recommended a test to see if a material is suitable as a soil ingredient. (Letting it sit in water for a few days to see if it stays intact)
I think I will try this for the corn cob. Its just the perfect size, absorbent, readily available, and it's cheap. I dont know about ph levels, if squirrels will try to eat it, and flotation during watering though. I was just thinking it could be an alternate additive to another absorbent material.
