Vitax Vermiculite 10L

Adding Vermiculite to growing media will improve aeration and increase the retention of moisture and nutrients.

Vermiculite:

• Can be used on its own or mixed 50/50 with compost
• Used for pricking out or potting on
• Improves the overall weight of larger pots and containers by improving water retention.

Vermiculite can help promote faster, healthier plant growth and also possesses ‘cation exchange’ properties enabling it to hold and make available to growing plants ammonium, potassium, calcium and magnesium.

Providing good air balance, Vermiculite helps maintain an even temperature and can be used for seed germinations, pricking out, potting on and plants in containers or tubs.

Vermiculite which is added to compost and other growing media will ensure the applied nutrients are available to the plant’s root system.
