Vermiculite

Vermiculite – Moisture-Retaining Soil Conditioner

Vermiculite is a natural, lightweight mineral that expands when heated, forming soft, absorbent flakes perfect for improving soil moisture and structure. Used widely in seed starting, potting mixes, and transplanting, vermiculite holds water and nutrients close to plant roots while ensuring proper aeration.

Unlike perlite, vermiculite retains more moisture, making it especially useful for plants that thrive in evenly damp conditions. It’s sterile, pH neutral, and long-lasting—ideal for both home gardeners and professional growers.
