Description:
In this video I try to provide complete information about the world of horticulture perlite and vermiculite, their differences, how to use them in best ways as potting mix amendments, when to use them and when to avoid, and other interesting gardening tricks regarding their uses.
Although perlite and vermiculite are both used as soil amendments for a common purpose - moisture retention and soil aeration, they are two different substances. They have quite different compositions and properties. Usually vermiculite is used to hold water within the potting mix and on the other hand, perlite is used to improve air circulation or aeration of the medium. Determining which is better for use in your garden depends on your plant types, their requirements and also the structure of your garden soil. In this video, I have discussed in details what perlite and vermiculite are, what makes them different, and how they can be used in container gardening.
