Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Perlite has allowed maximum growth with minimum re-potting/containering. It also saves money - as most commercial potting soils do not provide adequate drainage or aeration. It’s nice and coarse and pretty uniform in size for my use.



Cons

Product is advertised as “coarse” and labeled the same. It is invisible bag which you don't know the size of perlite inside except you open the bag. When i opened the bag, it is even smaller than home depot.

Price


Its amazing what 3 months can do to the price


I am so happy to find someone who sells it in bulk for a great price


Its a shame the price of this product has gone up so much in such a short amount of time


Stuff used to cost 35 a bag is now 45 a bag

Shipping


It arrived much faster than stated so im very pleased


This is my second volume purchase and the process from order to delivery was exceptional once again


Got it within 3 days of ordering


Shipping was good and product arrived in good condition

Packaging/appearance


I was beyond pleased to see that big beautiful bag


The same as the stuff ive been buying in smaller bags from the garden center


You may want to open your package with a mask on

Competitiveness


The quality on what i got is better than others i have had in the past


Perlite absorbs zero water while vermiculite absorbs and stores water until the plant needs it


In addition to perlite consider investing in some vermiculite


I will now pursue other options for perlite since there are cheaper ones out there
