Introducing our 10L Perlite Medium, a premium soil solution designed to enhance plant growth and health. This lightweight, hard, and aerated white mineral is formed from volcanic glass, making it an ideal addition to potting mixes. Perlite is renowned for its ability to improve drainage, provide aeration to plant roots, and retain essential moisture and nutrients from soluble fertilizers.
Perlite is an inorganic, inert, and sterile growing medium that offers numerous benefits for both novice and experienced gardeners. Its unique properties encourage quicker germination and improved seedling growth, making it a popular choice for seed-starting mixes and rooting cuttings. The drainage provided by perlite promotes rapid root production, ensuring that your plants establish themselves quickly and thrive.
This versatile medium is particularly excellent for succulents and orchids, which require well-draining soil to prevent root rot. By incorporating perlite into your potting mix, you can create an optimal environment for these plants to flourish. Additionally, medium perlite can be lightly scattered across your lawn's surface, where it will gradually work its way into the soil, enhancing drainage and overall soil health.
Our 10L Perlite Medium comes packed in a resealable zip lock bag, ensuring that it remains fresh and ready for use. Each bag contains approximately 860g of high-quality perlite, which is free from diseases, weeds, and insects. This environmentally friendly product boasts high cation-exchange capacity, excellent aeration, and drainage characteristics, making it a must-have for any gardening enthusiast.
To use perlite effectively, mix it with your potting soil at a ratio that suits your plants' needs. For most plants, a mixture of 30% perlite to 70% potting soil works well. This combination will ensure that your plants receive the aeration and drainage they require while retaining enough moisture for healthy growth. When transplanting seedlings, perlite allows for easy removal with minimal damage to the roots, ensuring a smooth transition to their new environment.
Store your 10L Perlite Medium in a cool, dry place to maintain its quality. The resealable zip lock bag makes it easy to access the perlite whenever you need it while keeping it protected from moisture and contaminants. Always handle perlite with care, as its lightweight nature can create dust. Wearing a mask while handling it is advisable to avoid inhaling any particles.
In summary, our 10L Perlite Medium is an essential component for any gardener looking to improve their plant's growth and health. With its excellent aeration, drainage, and moisture retention properties, this premium soil is perfect for a wide variety of plants, including succulents, orchids, and seedlings.
