I'm thinking of trying the same thing with she-oak (Casuarina/Allocasuarina spp.) branchlets/cladodes.

Basically, they're like droopy, segmented pine needles that dry up, go brown and fall apart into semi-woody (yet kind of pulpy) little pieces.

In nature, they often litter the ground and end up becoming like a thick matt that kind of prevents other plants from growing underneath. But I think it could be a useful component in a composite mix of other ingredients; like charcoal, peat, moss, coir, bark, sand, perlite, vermiculite, etc.
