Mother Earth® Perlite #4, Soilless Growing Medium (4 cu.ft.)

Add extra aeration and drainage with coarse #4 perlite

Mother Earth® Perlite #4 is an extra-coarse soilless growing medium for gardeners who want to open up heavy soil, potting mixes, coco, and propagation media. The lightweight, irregular particles help create air pockets around roots while improving drainage and reducing compaction.

• Extra-coarse #4 grade: Particle size is approximately 7/16 to 5/8 inch.
• Improves aeration: Creates pore space that helps roots access oxygen as the medium is watered.
• Supports drainage: Helps excess water move through soil and soilless mixes to reduce waterlogging.
• Versatile growing medium: Use in custom potting mixes, hydroponic systems, orchids, propagation, greenhouse growing, containers, and rooftop gardens.
• pH neutral and sterile: A durable amendment that does not provide plant nutrition on its own.
• Large 4 cu. ft. bag: Practical for frequent mixing, greenhouse work, and larger growing projects.

How to use

Blend into potting soil, coco, peat, or compost according to your crop and the texture you want. Perlite can also be used as a rooting medium for cuttings. Because perlite is not a fertilizer, provide nutrition separately when your plants need it.

A simple way to keep growing media lighter, airier, and less prone to compaction.
