How to Use

  1. Add to Potting Soil: Mix perlite into your favorite potting soil to enhance drainage and aeration. A suggested ratio is 1 part perlite to 4 parts potting mix, but adjust as needed for plants requiring higher drainage.
  2. For Seed Starting: Use pure perlite for seeds that thrive in high drainage. Follow packet instructions for planting, water appropriately, and place under grow lights or in a sunny spot. Provide water-soluble fertilizer once seedlings begin to grow.
  3. For Cuttings: Utilize perlite as a rooting medium for stem, tip, or leaf cuttings needing excellent drainage. Follow propagation guidelines, and once rooted, transfer starts into potting mix when new leaves develop.
  4. For Hydroponics: Use perlite as an effective and economical medium in hydroponics. Its fast-draining nature keeps roots aerated and healthy, supporting optimal plant growth.
