Just got some pellets called "Claybreaker".
Does anyone know if it works?


I think that's just Gypsum, it's a lot cheaper to use that than the named
ready made granules if you can get it. However builders plaster is mainly
gypsum I understand.
Gypsum does break up clay for some years.


Where can I get gypsum?


These people sell it: http://www.organiccatalog.com/catalog/. 12kg for
19.95 GBP, 3kg for 5.55 GBP. Just put "gypsum" in their search box to get to
it.

£4.35 for 25Kg from British Gypsum.

(17p per Kg)
