KG AND LITERS ARE NOT EQUIVALENT BECAUSE THE SPECIFIC WEIGHTS OF 10 LITERS OF VERMICULITE BODIES ARE DIFFERENT

FOR EXAMPLE 1 KG OF IRON COVERS A HANDFUL WHILE 1 KG OF COTTON COVERS A LARGE AREA

VERMICULITE OCCUPIES A LOT OF SPACE IN VOLUME, AS IT IS A LIGHT PRODUCT, IT IS LOW IN WEIGHT

Vermiculite Properties: Size: 1

4

4 mm

Bulk Density: 100

130 kg/m3 pH 5

7 Water retention capacity: 300% Vermiculite is long-lasting, clean, odorless, light and has the ability to retain all the nutrients the plant needs

Its structure does not deteriorate for 20 years

Promotes a fast and strong root development

Very light and sterile

Has the capacity to pick up fertilizers quickly and deliver them to the plant slowly

It prevents the development of algae

Accelerates germination and strengthens development

If the sown seeds are covered with vermiculite, they germinate quickly

The roots of the plant mixed with vermiculite are protected from frosts in winter and from heat in summer

High aeration capacity

Has high water holding capacity

Since it is sterile, the seeds are ready to germinate without rotting

Has the ability to release absorbed liquids slowly

Ensures the healthiest development by collecting fertilizers and irrigation water mixed into the soil and gradually adding them to the plant roots

Used in seedling cultivation by mixing 1/3 with peat
