3-6mm 4-8mm Expanded Perlite for Hydroponics system
Perlite is a raw material which, in its natural state, is a glassy volcanic rock containing a percentage of water.
During a process called "Expansion", Perlite is rapidly heated and expands up to twenty times its original size, due to the evaporation of the moisture from within.
Expanded perlite is a super light weight potting media that is clean and easy to use as well as environmentally friendly.It helps plants thrive and improves soil structure,
keeping it workable for years. This inorganic mineral will produce healthier plants that require less labor and watering.
Excellent for starting cuttings and storing bulbs Improves drainage and aeration in potting mixes.

Expanded Perlite Chemical composition & particle sizes analysis:
Why perlite has become so popular in the horticulture industry?
Expanded Perlite has a neutral pH of 6.5-7.5, which is perfect for hydroponic systems
Expanded Perlite Holds moisture but has an excellent drainage capacity
Expanded Perlite’s relatively large particle size allows for optimum oxygen exchange.
Expanded Perlite is extremely lightweight, making it very user-friendly. It is important to prevent injury in any way possible, and reducing unnecessary lifting is an obvious place to start.
Expanded Perlite is completely inert, meaning that it does not provide any nutrition for plants.
Expanded Perlite is free of pests, weeds, and disease, which means your plants will be healthier from the time it is planted.
