Vermiculite 10L – Lightweight Mineral for Improved Aeration & Moisture Retention

Vermiculite 10L is a natural mineral that has been heated to high temperatures to create lightweight, highly absorbent flakes. Ideal for use in gardening and horticulture, Vermiculite improves aeration, moisture retention, and nutrient availability in growing media.

It can be used on its own or mixed 50/50 with compost to enhance potting mixes, seed germination, pricking out, and potting on. By improving water retention, Vermiculite helps maintain even soil temperature, promotes faster and healthier plant growth, and increases the effectiveness of applied nutrients.

Its cation exchange properties allow it to hold and make available essential nutrients such as ammonium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, supporting strong root development and overall plant vitality.

Key Benefits:

• Lightweight, highly absorbent mineral

• Improves aeration and moisture retention in soil and compost

• Enhances nutrient availability to plants

• Ideal for seed germination, pricking out, potting on, and container plants

• Supports even soil temperature and faster, healthier growth

Application Instructions:

1. Use Vermiculite on its own or mix 50/50 with compost or potting soil.

2. Add to seed trays, pots, or containers for improved water retention and aeration.

3. Incorporate into larger pots to improve overall weight and moisture retention.
