• Lightweight and durable: Perlite is a lightweight and highly durable material that does not weigh down roots and does not decompose over time.
• Excellent for growing plants in containers: Perlite is particularly useful for plants grown in containers that don't like over-watering, such as cacti, succulents, and orchids. It helps soil retain moisture and nutrients while preventing root compaction.
• Hydroponic applications: Perlite has numerous hydroponic applications and has been shown to improve crop yields while reducing over-watering and under-watering problems associated with other materials like rockwool.
