Works well to keep the soil loose, to help keep soil evenly moist, and to help with drainage.
I grow most of our veggies in our basement and use a high quality potting soil for all of them. Many of the veggies I grow require evenly moist soil that does not compact and that drains well. This vermiculite is very light weight and does not add to weight of the pot, yet it absorbs enough moisture to keep the soil moist while allowing better drainage of excess water.I have been adding this vermiculite to my potting soil, and it seems to be helping a lot with the plants that need to be kept moist, such as cucumber, string beans and tomatoes. It is easier to keep them moist without overwatering them. This vermiculite also helps to keep the soil looser so that it doesn't compact with watering. For example, carrots are easier to harvest since they are not stuck in the soil. To easily harvest carrots without breaking them, first push them down, and then they easily pull out of the soil.30 quarts of vermiculite goes a long way even with the amount of plants I grow. It comes in a plastic bag in a box. I just leave the opened bag in the box and use as needed. When plants are watered, it does not float to the top as perlite does - it stays in the soil. I noticed that this vermiculite is not quite as fine as vermiculite I have bought in the past, and, considering the quantity of 30 quarts, it is less expensive than others I have found. I like this better since it does a better job of keeping the soil loose and aerated. This vermiculite is more of a gold color rather than the light brown color of others I have bought. I really like this vermiculite and what it does for my plants. I definitely plan to buy more of it.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Great product, thin bag.
My favorite for mixing into my soup for my houseplant collection. Great price and large quantity. The inner bag does rip very easily, be careful.

Large chunks!!
I really love how chunky the perlite is! I do think it's a bit too dusty, but I've had worse. Overall it works pretty incredible and my plants are thriving.

Not worried anymore!
No shops near me carried Perilite. I knew my plants would benefit from this find during our extra hot summer. So happy I found this product and at a great price!

Keeps potting soil very workable.
I put this in pots of succulents, oregano and canna lilies. Amazing growth all summer long. I stirred the rest into a 4 foot by 24 foot raised bed. I bought 30 quarts and there was plenty to go around. The bed also contained premium garden soil, worm castings and espoma plant tone. The harvest was bountiful for tomatoes, sunflowers, parsley and basil. I’m going to buy again this season…50 quarts now!

Not the right size.
First time I ordered large and it was perfect super chunky and exactly what I needed. I then ordered double the amount. This time it was medium sized at best. It was half the size of the last order. I don't have the time to return it and have a use for it so I'll keep it and try to order again to see if I can get the right size next time. If I don't I will return and never order again.
