Weighing just 20 pounds, this lightweight soil additive excels at improving drainage and aeration while anchoring roots for stronger plant growth. Ideal for professional gardeners and enthusiasts, it’s perfect for seed starting, cuttings, succulents, and hydroponics. Non-toxic and pest-resistant, it ensures a healthy, long-lasting growing medium that won’t decay or shrink. ## Description Dedicated growers and gardeners use PVP Industries organic perlite to create growing environments that support healthy plant development. This 120-quart supply of horticultural-grade perlite delivers the drainage, aeration, and root support that plants need to thrive in containers, raised beds, and hydroponic systems. The lightweight volcanic glass granules provide effective drainage properties while maintaining optimal moisture levels around plant roots. Unlike heavy sand or clay amendments, perlite creates permanent air pockets in soil mixes that help reduce compaction and waterlogging. This balanced environment allows roots to access both water and oxygen, supporting vigorous growth from seedling to maturity. When mixed with organic compost, potting soil, or natural garden soil, perlite helps anchor developing root systems while maintaining the loose, well-draining structure that plants require. The sterile, pH-neutral properties ensure compatibility with a wide range of plant species without introducing unwanted materials or altering soil chemistry. Each granule retains water and nutrients while allowing excess moisture to drain. This horticultural perlite is used in hydroponic applications where consistent growing medium performance is critical. The lightweight nature makes it easy to handle and mix, while the non-degrading mineral composition provides consistent soil structure improvement. Designed for greenhouse use and urban farmers, this coarse perlite supports seed starting, cutting propagation, and container growing applications. The 4-cubic-foot volume provides sufficient material for multiple growing projects across commercial operations. Whether you're establishing seedlings, rooting cuttings, or improving existing soil mixes, this organic perlite delivers supports consistent growing conditions across a range of applications. Review: Best bang for your buck $ Tried and True! - I am waiting for this to arrive still but I am a repeat customer multiple times over. Each time I order I get exactly what I was hoping for. A solid product perfect for making my own potting mix for garden veggies! VERY LARGE BAG! A good price too compared to buying it in smaller quantities from big box stores. All I can say is get it if you need it. If youre here, look no further, THIS IS THE ONE! Review: Consistent Quality Perlite at a Great Price - For a a medium-coarse perlite, this is a great product at a very fair price point (especially for 4 c.u. feet). I am a big fan of using perlite in my planting mixes as it does a great job with soil areation and helps with water retention as well. As I mentioned, this is medium-coarse grade perlite which I use in my planting mixes for herbs and veggies, potted tropical plants, etc. I typically use about 1/3 of perlite to my mix (with the other 2/3 being a standard soil mix or moistened peat moss). You can increase or decrease the amount of perlite depending on what you are planting. For example, I use at least 50% for succulents. The last point is regarding dust. Yes, there is perlite dust in this big bag; however, it is no worse than any other supplier that I have used; it's actually a bit BETTER! When pouring and mixing, I do recommend wearing a mask, just you don't breathe in the dust. Another simple recommendation if you don't want to mess with a mask, is to spray the portion of perlite you are going to use with water and it does a great job settling the dust. Again, this is a great product and a very good value for the amount you get with free shipping!!!

Aprox. 1/16" and over 1/3 of bag was powder **Q: What size perlite is this?** A: It is large, coarse perlite. The pieces range from pea size to maybe moth ball size. Of course they’re not perfectly round but you get the idea. I raise cactus and succulents so I need my soil mix to be very fast draining so this works perfectly. **Q: Does this perlite need to be rinsed prior to use? Is it dusty?** A: You can rinse if you’d like ,but it’s most likely still going to be dusty. Without rinsing the perlite it will be very dusty and should not be breathed upon. **Q: Is there a way I can change my order pay for faster shipping** A: only the seller can tell you this ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best bang for your buck $ Tried and True! *by J***G on February 3, 2026* I am waiting for this to arrive still but I am a repeat customer multiple times over.

Happy Growing! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must Have For Cactus *by M***F on February 6, 2026* For a medium-coarse perlite, this product is an excellent value for money, especially considering its size (4 cubic feet). I am particularly fond of using perlite in my planting mixes, as it effectively improves soil aeration and enhances water retention. As mentioned, this is a medium-coarse grade perlite, which I utilize in my planting mixes for herbs, vegetables, potted tropical plants, and other similar items. Typically, I incorporate approximately one-third of perlite to my mix, with the remaining two-thirds consisting of a standard soil mix or moistened peat moss. The amount of perlite can be adjusted based on the specific plants being grown. For instance, I use at least 50% perlite when planting succulents. Regarding dust, it is true that this product contains perlite dust. However, it is comparable to the dust produced by other suppliers I have used and, in fact, may even be slightly superior. When pouring and mixing the perlite, I recommend wearing a mask to avoid inhaling the dust. Alternatively, if you prefer not to use a mask, you can spray the portion of perlite you intend to use with water, which effectively settles the dust. Overall, this product is highly recommended and offers excellent value for the quantity included with free shipping.
