• 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.
