How much to apply

A little perlite goes a long way! No more than 10% by volume should be added to your soil mix. In other words, add 1 scoop of perlite for every 9 scoops of soil.

Tips

Storing bulbs and root crops: When placing perlite around bulbs or roots, avoid packing it tightly. Bulbs and root crops store best in a cool, dry location.
