## Description

From the manufacturer TrustBasket Perlite for Gardening (450 g) Perlite is a volcanic glass that is mined and then heated in big ovens until it 'pops' into a round, white material. That white material is used in seed-starting and potting mixtures to lighten the soil, allow more air around the roots of plants. It helps to retain water and improve drainage in the potting mix by providing aeration. Trust Basket is a gardening store in India that caters to all your home gardening requirements. Whether you want to set up a vertical garden in the balcony of your house or a terrace garden on your house, you can get all the garden items.

Review: Compliments - The item was so nice and we can able to use this for planting a plant in a soiless medium.
Review: Would recommend - 4.5 - Enough quantity. Definitely increases drainage. Can confirm. Improves the potting mixture for house plants. The particle size isn't uniform. Approximately 20-30% are very fine particles. Not sure if such variation is a good thing or not. Mild respiratory hazard for the fine stuff; use in a ventilated area. 5/5 if the particle size is consistent.

## Features

- TrustBasket Perlite is lightweight with tiny air compartments. This excellent Soil Additive ensures adequate soil aeration without adding weight to the soil.
- With its stable and porous nature, perlite helps in maintaining soil structure by preventing compactness. This promotes healthier root growth by ensuring roots have enough room to expand and absorb essential nutrients.
- Perlite's ability to enhance soil drainage prevents waterlogging, safeguarding roots from damage caused by excessive moisture. Adequate moisture in roots is crucial for plant health, and perlite helps maintain optimal soil moisture levels for thriving plants.
- From seed starting to hydroponics, perlite serves multiple purposes in gardening. Whether incorporated into potting soil or used as a top dressing, it's suitable for various gardening methods including container gardening, traditional land gardening, and terrace gardening.
- Adding perlite to potting soil at a ratio of 20-25% improves root health and drainage. After repotting, generous watering helps settle the mix and establish roots. Additionally, increasing perlite to 30% when blending with clay soil further bolsters soil structure and drainage, providing consistent results with each use.

The perlite when mixed with my cocopeat and bark chips formed an excellent loamy texture to the soil which is a great soil mix for plants like jade and anthuriums.
