Kushy Perlite – 5L

Enhance Your Growing Media with Premium Horticultural Perlite

Transform your gardening experience with our Premium Horticultural Perlite. This versatile, naturally occurring volcanic glass has been expanded to create a lightweight, porous material that is essential for improving soil structure, drainage, and overall plant health.

Key Benefits and Features:

• Superior Aeration: The porous nature of perlite ensures excellent aeration, preventing soil compaction and promoting healthy root growth by allowing air to reach the root system effectively.
• Optimal Drainage: Perlite’s unique structure helps improve soil drainage, preventing waterlogging and reducing the risk of root rot. It maintains the perfect balance of water retention and drainage for optimal plant growth.
• Lightweight and Easy to Handle: Perlite is lightweight, making it easy to mix with soil or other growing media. It also reduces the overall weight of potted plants, making them easier to move and manage.
• Improved Soil Structure: Mixing perlite with soil enhances its structure, creating a looser, more friable medium that supports vigorous plant growth.
• pH Neutral and Sterile: Perlite is naturally sterile and free from diseases, pests, and weed seeds. Its neutral pH makes it suitable for a wide range of plants and growing conditions.
• Versatile Application: Ideal for seed starting, hydroponics, container gardening, and soil conditioning. It can also be used as a rooting medium for cuttings and as a component in potting mixes.
• Long-Lasting: Perlite does not decompose or break down over time, providing long-term benefits to soil structure and plant health.

How to Use:

• Soil Amendment: Mix perlite into your soil at a ratio of 10-50%, depending on your specific needs and plant requirements. For heavy clay soils, a higher percentage of perlite will improve aeration and drainage.
• Seed Starting: Use perlite alone or mix it with peat moss or vermiculite to create a sterile, well-draining medium for germinating seeds.
• Container Gardening: Add perlite to potting mixes to improve drainage and aeration, ensuring optimal conditions for container-grown plants.
