Premium horticultural vermiculite:

Boost your gardening success with our Premium Horticultural Vermiculite, a versatile and essential addition to any growing medium. Vermiculite is a naturally occurring mineral that expands when heated, creating a lightweight, absorbent material ideal for improving soil and growing media.

Key benefits and features

Excellent moisture retention: Vermiculite’s absorbent nature allows it to retain moisture efficiently, ensuring that your plants receive a consistent supply of water. This helps prevent overwatering and underwatering, creating an ideal environment for root development.

Enhanced nutrient retention: Vermiculite improves soil’s ability to retain essential nutrients, making them readily available to plants. This ensures optimal nutrient uptake, promoting healthier and more vigorous growth.

Improved aeration: By loosening heavy soils, vermiculite enhances aeration and prevents soil compaction. This promotes better root penetration and growth, leading to stronger and healthier plants.

Ph neutral and sterile: Vermiculite is naturally sterile, free from pests, diseases, and weed seeds. It has a neutral pH, making it suitable for a wide range of plants and growing conditions.

Versatile application: Ideal for seed starting, soil conditioning, container gardening, and hydroponics. Vermiculite can also be used as a rooting medium for cuttings and as a component in potting mixes.

Long-lasting: Vermiculite does not break down or decompose over time, providing lasting benefits to soil structure and plant health.

How to use

Seed starting: Mix vermiculite with peat moss or use it alone to create a sterile, well-draining medium for germinating seeds. Its moisture retention properties ensure an optimal environment for seedling growth.

Soil amendments: Incorporate vermiculite into your soil at a ratio of 10-50% to improve moisture retention, nutrient availability, and aeration. It is particularly beneficial for sandy soils that drain too quickly.

Container gardening: Add vermiculite to potting mixes to enhance moisture and nutrient retention, ensuring that container-grown plants thrive.

Rooting cuttings: Use vermiculite as a rooting medium for cuttings to provide the perfect balance of moisture and aeration, promoting successful root development.
