Product Summary
Improve growing-media structure and root-zone performance with Mother Earth Perlite #4 (4 Cubic Foot Bags) in Bulk, a premium large-grade horticultural perlite for commercial growers, greenhouses, nurseries, hydroponic facilities, landscaping operations, and professional cultivation. Mother Earth Perlite #4 is a highly porous expanded mineral amendment designed to increase aeration, drainage, and moisture management in a wide variety of growing-media blends.
The large #4 perlite particles provide substantial pore space throughout the root zone, helping reduce compaction while maintaining airflow and drainage. Because perlite does not significantly alter growing-media pH, growers can incorporate it into custom soil, coco, peat, and soilless mixes while maintaining greater control over their cultivation program.
