Frequently Asked Questions

Is this perlite OMRI Listed?

Yes, it is OMRI Listed, which confirms it meets the standards required for certified organic production. That makes it an option for growers maintaining organic certification on their operation.

What is coarse grade perlite used for?

It's used primarily in soil mixes, hydroponics, and general gardening, where its particle size adds aeration without the extreme drainage of a super coarse grade. That balance makes it a common middle-ground choice for container gardening.

Is perlite safe to handle?

Yes, it is clean, sterile, non-flammable, and non-toxic, so it can be handled and stored without special precautions. It also won't alter the pH of growing media it's mixed into.

How long does this perlite last in growing media?

It lasts indefinitely, since perlite is an inert volcanic mineral that doesn't decay, compost, or attract pests the way organic amendments can. That stability is part of why it's used across so many different growing-media blends.
