HOW MUCH PERLITE DO YOU MIX INTO POTTING SOIL? DOES PERLITE CAUSE BROWN TIPS? A SOIL SCIENTIST VIEW
Perlite is a main ingredient in any type of soil mixture but the question is how much perlite do you add and why? In this video we take the science and look at exactly why perlite is used in potting soil mixtures. Gardening in Canada also looks at the fact that not all perlite is made the same & the difference between fine & course perlite is a game changer when it comes to drainage & over watering.
