Description
1kg bag of perlite for use in plant pots and hanging baskets. Perlite is a naturally occurring mineral that helps to aerate soil and improve drainage, this allows air and water to reach the roots. Perlite also absorbs and locks away water and then releases it when the soil gets too dry. This helps to keep your plants hydrated. Our perlite is specially sourced and graded to help speed up root development and germination of seeds and maintain healthy plant growth. Each bag of perlite is also zip locked allowing you to easily use what you require then store the rest away. The most important one is drainage. Perlite is a natural filtration system, allowing excess water to easily drain away while retaining a little moisture and catching nutrients that plants need to grow. This is especially true in raised beds and container gardens, in commercial potting soil, but also in the ground as well.
