Perlite (Regular) 2L

Perlite (Regular) 2L from DH Garden Centre is a premium horticultural-grade growing medium made from naturally occurring volcanic glass.

When heated to over 900°C, it expands into lightweight, porous granules filled with millions of microscopic air pockets. This unique structure dramatically improves drainage and aeration in your potting mix, helping prevent root rot — one of the most common problems for indoor gardeners in Canada.

Key Benefits

• • Creates millions of air pockets for superior root oxygenation and faster growth
• • Excellent drainage prevents overwatering and root rot, especially during long Canadian winters
• • Naturally sterile and pH neutral (7.0) — completely safe for all plants including edibles
• • Extremely lightweight and reusable after rinsing
