try putting a ball in the center. There will be less mixture and more air!

You can use styrofoam balls in the center. You can also make the mix lighter. One part mix, one part peat moss, one part perlite. Similar to Hypertufa.

Vermiculite will also lighten the load, added bonus: it can add a metallic glimmer, like pyrite.. Hardware or garden stores should have it, it feels like lightweight chopped shredded balsa wood.
