Plagron Perlite acts as the \"lungs\" in the substrate. By mixing in perlite, the soil remains loose and fluffy even after repeated watering. This is particularly important for fast-growing plants with a high metabolism. In addition, the porous surface stores small amounts of water and nutrients, which are released to the plant as needed, while excess water can drain away immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eApplication Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e For an optimal soil structure, we recommend a mixture of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"80\"\u003e10% to 35% perlite\u003c\/b\u003e in your substrate (soil or coco).
