Vermiculite
Moisture and nutrients always available with SISANFLOR Vermiculite 5L
SISANFLOR 5-Liter Vermiculite is a naturally occurring mineral expanded by heat that acts like a smart sponge in your pots and seed trays. Unlike perlite (which drains water), vermiculite is designed to lock in moisture and nutrients, releasing them slowly as your plants' roots need them.
It is the essential additive for plants that require a consistently moist and cool substrate, and the best-kept secret for achieving near 100% seed germination rates.
Main Benefits
High liquid retention: It can absorb several times its weight in water, keeping the substrate moist for longer and reducing watering frequency.
Nutrient reservoir: Thanks to its high cation exchange capacity, it grabs onto fertilizers (potassium, calcium, magnesium) and prevents them from washing away, slowly feeding them back to the plant.
Boosts germination: Keeps seeds wrapped in constant, gentle moisture, which is crucial for the first days of a seedling's life.
Insulating and sterile: Protects roots from temperature fluctuations. Because it is heat-treated during manufacturing, it is completely free of fungi and pests.
Composition and Technical Specs
Composition: 100% Expanded magnesium-aluminum-iron silicate mineral (Horticultural Vermiculite).
Volume: 5 Liters.
pH: Neutral (Approximately 7.0).
Weight: Very light and fluffy, appearing as small golden flakes or accordions.
Recommended Uses
Seedlings: Use it pure or in a mix to germinate seeds with maximum success.
Rooting cuttings: Maintains the necessary humidity for new roots to emerge without rotting the stem.
Potting mixes for indoor plants and gardens: Ideal for adding to substrates that dry out too quickly (mix in 10% to 20%).
Growing bulbs, tropical plants, and even mushrooms.
Usage tip: Create the "Ultimate Professional Substrate" at home by mixing: 60% SISANFLO Coco Coir, 20% Perlite (for drainage), and 20% Vermiculite (to retain moisture and nutrients). Your plants will thrive like never before!
