About this item

Product details

Horticultural grade vermiculite. Very fine coarseness (granules slightly larger than sand). Vermiculite is a silicate of magnesium-aluminum-iron that is treated at high temperatures which cause it to expand. It is used in as a soil ammendment to increase the water and nutrient holding capacity of soil. Vermiculite aerates soil and can be used to treat compacted soil or soil that tends to compact easily. Vermiculite has a neutral pH of 7. When compared to perlite, vermiculite holds more water and nutrients than perlite, and is ideal for most plants, especially those that are less tolerant to underwatering. While vermiculite does provide aeration, it doesn't aerate as well as perlite. Vermiculite is also believed to help plants take up nutrients in the soil more easily. Use up to 50% vermiculite in your potting mix. Vermiculite is very popular with container gardeners and is a great additive planters or indoor plant pots.

I like this vermiculite for my potted plants. it's a good amount for the price and it arrived on time in good shape. when Walmart was all out of it I tried a different brand and was very disappointed. this is the one I buy whenever it's available.
