## Description

From the manufacturer Gro-Sure Perlite This naturally occurring volcanic rock has been heated to high temperatures to produce lightweight, micro-porous granules. This is perfect for improving aeration, moisture retention and drainage. Naturally occurring material Improves aeration & drainage for healthy root growth Ideal for use when rooting cuttings & potting-on General Advice Store in a dry, frost free place away from weedkillers and other garden chemicals Wear gloves when handling and wash hands after use Reseal bag after use Mixing the micro-porous granules of Gro-Sure Perlite with your compost. Stimulates strong, healthy root growth Helps increase absorption & water retention Improves aeration and drainage How to Use For harder cuttings and for fragile plants increase to two parts Perlite and one part Gro-Sure Seed & Cutting Compost. Keep well watered, but ensure pots can freely drain. We recommend dampening the Perlite before use, to reduce dust. When using the whole bag contents, add up to 1 litre (2 pints) of water in the bag and leave to soak for several minutes before use. Rooting Cuttings For soft stem and leaf cuttings, use a mixture of equal parts by volume of Gro-Sure Seed & Cutting Compost and Gro-Sure Perlite. Potting on Use a mixture of Gro-Sure All Purpose Compost with 25% Gro-Sure Perlite added. Perlite can be used wholly or in part replacement of sand and/or grit to create a light and very open structure, improving drainage, aeration and insulation. Before transplanting plants from pots to containers it is recommended to water the plants well and allow to drain. Remove plants from their pots and place into the container, firming compost around the plant roots. Once the container is fully planted, water well and feed as appropriate

Review: Great Quality and Perfect for Healthy Plants! - This Gro-Sure Perlite is excellent — light, clean, and easy to mix with compost. It really improves drainage and root growth, and my plants are thriving since I started using it. I keep coming back to it each time reporting is done. The 10 L bag goes a long way and is great value for the quality. Highly recommend for gardeners who want strong, healthy plants!
Review: Seems good? - I bought this to mix in with compost and pot up a bunch of outdoor plants. The price was competitive and is often cheaper than garden centers when it's on sale. Maybe this is common for all perlite, this is the first time I've used it, but a lot of it will float to the surface when you water in your plant for the first time. In my opinion it looks really terrible and maybe this is my inexperience in using it. I've covered with a mulch to cover up the crazy amount of white bits that ended up on the surface and that seems to have helped. Next time I would probably save a bit of compost spare and unmixed to top up the pots a few inches with plain compost to avoid the issue I had this time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is Perlite and vermiculite the same**
A: Vermiculite is an aluminum-iron-magnesium silicate that resembles mica in appearance. For use in horticultural applications, vermiculite is heated to expand the particles. This expansion enables it to absorb moisture when used as a potting medium. Vermiculite can soak up 3 to 4 times its volume in water. It also attracts plant nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorus. Perlite is an amorphous volcanic rock that is rich in silicon. When mined for use as a potting medium, perlite is crushed and also heated to expand the particles. The microscopic bubbles in perlite granules absorb and hold water as well, but they also hold air. Basically, I use Vermiculite when seed sowing and Perlite if I am planting in small containers

**Q: Can I use perlite and vermiculite mix together**
A: There's really no need to mix perlite and vermiculite because each of them is best suited for different situations. Use perlite to root cuttings or grow cacti, succulents, epiphytes, and other plants that benefit from quickly draining soil with plenty of aeration.

**Q: I'd just like to ask if one bag of 10L perlight  costs £6.00 . why does 2 bags of the same product cost £17.92 ,  6+6 = 12 ?**
A: Suggest direct your question to Westland Gro-Sure Perlite. However my information is that one bag costs £8.10 - still does not add up though

**Q: how much perlite to potting soil?**
A: I use about 1/4 mix but you can try 50/50.There's no right or wrong but remember that the perlite has no nutrients as it is made of volcanic rock granules. The white tiny rocks absorb moisture and retain the moisture around  the plant roots, the granules aerate your potting soil too by helping with drainage so your potting soil is not clogged.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality and okay value.
*by E***L on 20 January 2025*

Good quality product with very little dust meaning it easy to mix with other compost and noticeably improves drainage. Noticed it helps with growth rate when propagating cuttings. Decent amount/quantity and value for money. It’s an expensive product wherever you get it though.
