Perfect Plants Vermiculite is an excavated mineral rock that is conditioned for use with garden plants. This porous soil additive helps to aerate soils, keeping stress off of growing roots. Adding Vermiculite to your soil is beneficial because it holds nutrients where growing roots can reach — while draining away excess water and harmful bacteria. Vermiculite proves to be a great match with plants grown in containers — these rocks do not decompose even in harsh weather conditions. Perfect Plants Vermiculite is a 8 Quart supply that comes in a 13×15″ heavy duty, re-sealable bag — perfect for storage or later use.

Vermiculite is Beneficial For:

 

  • Aerating Soils
  • Indoor and Outdoor Plants
  • Holding Nutrients Where Plants Can Reach
  • Drains Harmful Bacteria
  • Maintains Soil Moisture
  • Balances Container Conditions for Potted Plants

Mix Vermiculite With Natural Soils

Vermiculite is best used as an additive to help lighten and enhance soil conditions for potted plants. We recommend pairing with an All-Natural, preferably organic, potting soil. This soil additive will relieve stress on roots and drain excess moisture — providing the most ideal container conditions for plants of any kind.

Simply mix a 1:4 ratio of 1 part Perfect Plants Vermiculite with 4 Parts Organic Potting Mix.

Blend well in a large container before using to pot plants.

Aerates Soil

Vermiculite is porous, lightweight, and creates space within potting soils. This helps to relieve stress on growing roots.

 

  • Allows free-flow of beneficial micro-organisms
  • Proper drainage of harmful bacteria
  • Maintains moisture where roots can access

Holds Nutrients

The porous surfaces of Vermiculite hold nutrients in place, making it easier for roots to absorb.

 

  • Beneficial for hydroponics & seeds — nutrients won’t wash away from roots
  • Proper drainage will keep environment moist without over-saturating the soil

Protects Against Dryness

Vermiculite is an excavated mineral rock that does not decompose. It is frequently used at the bottom of gas fire places to help absorb and direct heat.

 

  • Balances dry conditions by absorbing heat, keeping soil temps cool
  • Holds moisture even in drought-like conditions

Hydroponic Growing

Vermiculite is an incredible asset for hydroponic growing. When used as a growing medium for establishing roots, Vermiculite can be the perfect match to help boost your plant by cutting excess water and absorbing vital nutrients!
