Description
Perlite is created by crushing and heating volcanic rock until it expands to create small, white, porous pieces. This lightweight material is pH neutral and is usually added to soil mixes to increase aeration, prevent compaction and promote root growth; but we also use it as a standalone substrate for rooting cuttings or for rehabilitation.
Coarse grade is approximately 3-5mm grade

Verified reviews
Rated by real customers
Coarse grade product for creating custom potting mixes and improving soil aeration. Customers praised the "good quality" and "great price," with resealable bags for easy storage. Quick delivery and generous quantity noted. Some found the grade smaller than expected for coarse, with occasional dustiness, though one noted "hardly any dust."
