Product information

Perlite for plants. Use Vitax Perlite Compost Additive for potting compost mixes for seeds, cuttings potting & planting. Perlite is a porous volcanic rock that aerates soils and retains water & nutrients when added to potting compost. Perlite is harder and typically lighter in colour than vermiculite, but both are used in horticulture to increase water retention as they are both porous.

How to use perlite for plants


Use perlite on its own or as part of a mix for starting seeds, transplanting seedlings or potting into new trays or pots. If mixing, add it to seed compost or potting compost at a ratio of 1:5.
