Description
Perlite is a kind of volcanic glass made out of mined volcanic rock. Perlite is a white, sterile propagating medium used by growers to keep soil loose, allowing air and water to reach roots
Perlite is used in soil mixes (including soilless mediums) to improve aeration and modify the soil substructure, keeping it loose, well-draining, and defying compaction
It is ideal for seeds germination, for potting plants, to root cuttings, to hold cut flower and to help establish new lawns
Benefits :
- Water retention: Perlite has porous nooks and crannies that help in retaining water in the soil.
- Aeration: In addition to retaining water, perlite can also retain air, which helps with soil aeration.
- It also helps prevent soil compaction, helping facilitate good drainage in easily compacted clay soils.
- Neutral pH level: Perlite won’t affect the PH Balance in your soil.
