PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF EXPANDED PERLITE
all that give the expanded perlite the ability to be use in wide application and sectors . one of them for agriculture and horticulture .
Expanded perlite can be use as pure Substrate in soilless culture and for hydroponic growth . also can be use as additive to be mix with peat moss , cocopeat ,compost or any other organic product .adding perlite to the growing media substrate is reducing the substrate volume weight and increase the air capacity and draining ability .expanded perlite is high recommended to be use in any substrate mixture or potting soil for seedling and growing cultivation and gardening
