Vermiculite (5 L)
New
Vermiculite.
Vermiculite is a thermally processed pure clay mineral of natural origin,
able to absorb into itself 500 times a large mass of water (!).
Ultra lightweight and sterile, no weed seeds.
Ideal for organic farming.
Vermiculite improves the structure of the soil for indoor plants, hanging vases and balcony boxes and increases its water-holding capacity. Suitable for adding to sowing soil, covering seed crops and rooting peels, as well as for winter storage of vegetables and flower bulbs.
By creating a favorable moisture and air regime in the soil, vermiculite reduces the risks caused by insufficient and excessive irrigation. Vermiculite must be mixed with soil in a 1:1 ratio.
Attention! Not recommended for acidophilic plants that love acidic soils, since vermiculite increases the alkalinity of the soil, neutralizing increased acidity.

Purpose: soil improver. It is added to the soil or substrate for planting outdoor and greenhouse vegetables, flowers and other indoor plants, ornamental plants, berry bushes and fruit trees. Suitable for growing plants hydroponically.
Vermiculite retains moisture, protects against diseases, improves air circulation in the root zone and fixes nutrients for plant nutrition.
The key characteristic of vermiculite is the retention of moisture in the soil, which makes it suitable for use as a soil conditioner.
Vermiculite granules can absorb 3-4 times more water than their own weight.
To obtain comprehensive benefits, it is recommended to use vermiculite and perlite together (up to 30% of the substrate or soil): vermiculite retains more moisture and gradually releases it to plants, thereby protecting them from drying out, while a substrate enriched with perlite does not squeeze the roots of plants, ensuring easy air circulation.
