Perlite offers wide range of benefits in agriculture and horticulture, boosting plant growth and soil health:
Perlite's use in agriculture and horticulture is revolutionary, addressing the essential needs of modern sustainable farming and gardening. The science behind perlite's success in these fields lies in its physical structure, formed when volcanic glass is heated to a high temperature, causing the water content to vaporize and the material to expand. The primary role of expanded perlite in soilless growing mixes is aeration when added to peat moss, composts, coir and other water-holding aggregates. The porous surface of perlite provides room alternately for both air and water in the mixes each needed for vigorous root growth.
Perlite is a heat expanded, man made Perlite for use as a hydroponic growing medium. Perlite retains enough moisture for it to be suitable as a hand watered medium, but also has sufficient drainage to be used in a recycling drip irrigation system. Perlite is extremely lightweight and is suitable for use in a variety of growing containers pots, trays, bottom fed auto watering systems, etc.
---Expanded Perlite Application:
