Default [IBC] Granite Grit

Billy on the Florida Space Coast said:
I use a mix that includes three ingredients.
1. Something to retain moisture without getting soggy -
Turface
2. Something organic - maybe to keep beneficial soil
bacteria
alive - Composted Pine Bark
3. AND something to promote good drainage - pea gravel or
granite
grit.


Steve asks:

Won't the Turface and screened organic stuff give you good drainage?
Does granite drain that much better than clay granules?

Thanks,
Steve
