Ideally, I would be able to assist you in any way I can. The only thing I can say is I originally purchased this for my potted plants at home. So far, I have not faced any problems. It is loved by my potted specimens as well as by my trees and plants. The system seems to be quite effective for the garden I have
You should use enough perlite depending on the type of soil you intend to use, the amount of soil, and the application for which it is being used. It usually takes a couple of days You should add 3 tablespoons to a 25-pound bag of soil when you are planting inside.
There are only very small pieces of perlite. I tossed it out

I will not order As I'd previously had an excellent bag delivered a few months ago, I expected the same quality. I'd read reviews warning about inconsistent coarseness, but I'd already had a good bag delivered earlier in the year. The warnings went unheeded, but it was for the best. There's a significant amount in the bag, about 1 lb We have to screen out 2 qts of the sample as they are useless. A few are large enough not to create a dust cloud yet smaller than sand. In fact, some of the fines are brown/grey sand. Today was a rough day, and there were fewer customers. We continued to deliver on schedule despite all the challenges. For scale, you need to look at the numbers. The usable portion of the bag of perlite was in the box when I opened the bag, so I never returned the bag, but I was disappointed (especially given that this was supposedly an "Amazon's choice" product) and will never use.
In addition, To get a finer crush, I needed a slightly coarser grind. Despite my best efforts, these pieces were slightly larger than I thought they would be. It was still useful, but I had to crush it into a manageable size.
It is of terrible value and is extremely inconsistent in size. In this bag I found different kinds of seeds from coarse to fine, and for the price I was not convinced.
As a result, you get a great deal. Each piece of perlite in the bag is different in size. Only complaint is that they come packaged in a super cheap bag Neither the teeth nor the clips will snap together, so I must use a clip to keep it closed. It's supposedly "releasable," but I have trouble getting the teeth to click together. Likewise, be careful if you decide to tip the bag over and pour it out in order to mix a large amount There will be tons of little perlite dust particles that will get everywhere and make you cough and sneeze. The chunks may be removed by slowing the flow or scooping.
This I purchased to mix with sphagnum moss and/or bark for the purpose of planting my orchids, and I think it is perfect for the job. There is a bit of a difference in the sizes between the pieces, but it is exactly what I wanted.
The productivity and drainage of the farm have been increased 100%. It should be mixed into soil every year at the beginning of gardening season by no gardens without it.
Even on the very bottom of the bag, you can see the particles are much bigger than what you would get from the local box store. Over the last few months, I have ordered 6 bags, and they have all been of The price is high, but it is worth it if you take good care of your plants.
In my terrace, I use it as a bottom layer in containers to promote drainage, and I like it a lot better than garden soil. The stuff I have been using lately is from the center. You can see the chunkiness and cleaner design Unlike bargain perlite, this type of perlite does not produce much dust. It also does not blow about as much, which is an advantage during In order to prevent soil from washing out, the larger pieces cover the holes in the bottoms of the planters. "Premium" is a very appropriate word to describe it.
