Description

A lightweight, natural additive designed to improve drainage and aeration in your compost mixes. BetterGrow Perlite helps create the ideal growing environment for strong, healthy root development—particularly important for houseplants, cuttings and seed sowing.

Made from naturally occurring volcanic rock, perlite is heated to create a micro-porous, airy structure that prevents compaction and allows roots to breathe. It also helps regulate moisture and temperature within the soil, reducing the risk of root rot and other common issues.
