That white material is used in seed-starting and potting mixtures to lighten the soil. It also allows more air around the roots for the healthy growth of plants. As a soil amendment, it reduces compaction in soil and improves the soil structure. TrustBasket Perlite is sterile and free of pathogens and weed seeds. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBenefits of Perlite: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves aeration and drainage in the soil. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerlite particles create tiny air tunnels which allow moisture, oxygen, and nutrients to flow freely to roots. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves aeration in clayey soil too. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces the extreme temperature fluctuations in the soil. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents root rotting. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest to grow cuttings as cuttings are more prone to rotting. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pH of perlite ranges between 6.5 - 7.5.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirections to use:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 - 25% perlite can be added to make a potting mix. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd 30% when used with clay soil. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used anywhere like container gardening, land gardening, terrace gardening, etc.Application tips: \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWear a mask to prevent nasal allergies \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStoring tips: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep it away from children and pets. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnce the pack is opened, store the left perlite at low-medium air-tight conditions. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 - 25% perlite can be added to make a potting mix. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd 30% when used with clay soil. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used anywhere like container gardening, land gardening, terrace gardening, etc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pasumai Thottakalai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67781540839535,"sku":"286","price":299.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/8390\/7695\/files\/17899669371001photo_2026-09-21_10-31-41.jpg?v=1792128399","url":"https:\/\/pasumaithottakalai.com\/products\/perlite-1-kg","provider":"Pasumai Thottakalai","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
