This is our own Grow Pro perlite, bagged by us in a handy 10L size, because not everybody needs a bag the size of a small car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerlite is volcanic rock that gets heated until it pops, kind of like popcorn, into these light little white nuggets. Mixed into your soil it keeps things loose and airy, lets extra water drain away instead of sitting around your roots, and gives roots room to breathe and stretch out. Happy roots, happy plant. It really is that simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it is good for:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMixing into potting soil for tropicals, aroids and anything that hates wet feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChunky custom mixes for monstera, philodendron and alocasia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeed starting and rooting cuttings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightening up heavy, dense bagged soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydroponics and semi hydro setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow I use it:\u003c\/strong\u003e for most houseplants I mix roughly 1 part perlite to 3 parts soil. For plants that really like it dry and chunky, like monstera and other aroids, go heavier, up to half and half. Scoop it loose, no need to pack it down. A quick rinse or a light mist before mixing keeps the dust down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/strong\u003e perlite does nothing but structure. It has no food in it, so your plant still needs its regular feeding. It never breaks down, so the drainage you mix in today is still working next year. And yes, those little white bits in almost every good potting mix you have ever bought? This is that stuff, just bagged by us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBagged and sealed by Grow Pro at Booth 801, Oshawa Markets. Questions about your mix?
