Both perlite and vermiculite are put to use in the garden to improve drainage, prevent compacted soil and increase moisture retention. They are both used in propagation of new plants and for seed starting and cultivation for indoor growing, outdoor growing, and composting.
What does Perlite do? - Perlite are the white pieces you see in most retail potting mixes. Perlite, an all natural volcanic glass that is "popped" like popcorn under high heat, creates a light airy stone like material. It is known for its ability to increase soil aeration when incorporated in mixes. This allows for quality water retention and shedding away of excess water or "soupy" moisture.
What does Vermiculite do? - Vermiculite is an all natural silicate mineral closely related to mica. Vermiculite is used widely in horticulture for its moisture and nutrition retention ability, allowing for the absorption and slow release of both.
Combined, they are perfect for growing plants that need a well-draining substrate and water retention. This is especially ideal for plants such as succulents and mushrooms. Also this is a great substrate for hydroponic gardening. It can be used alone or in combination with coco coir in hydroponics. Or add to any houseplant potting mix.
At Soil Sunrise, we take pride in our mixes, hand-blending each batch to ensure quality every single time.

Mix the perlite and vermiculite into your existing soil so that it makes up around 10% to 50% of the total volume of soil, depending on how much drainage and water retention your plant needs.
