Description
Perlite – Coarse
Perlite is a fantastic medium for plants growing in any type of situation. It is very versatile, and able to be used stand alone or as a mix with other substrates.
It can be used for hydroponics, in wicking beds, for indoor plants such as aroids, and as a soil amendment.
As a mix in soil and hydroponics perlite can help stop compaction of the soil, creating a better medium for roots to thrive in. It can also provide some aeration to your medium to help plants not be over watered.
