This perlite from Jiffy Plants is a lightweight, white potting mix ingredient, sold in 100 g, 200 g, 500 g and 1 kg packs. Perlite starts as a natural volcanic glass that is crushed and heated to about 900°C, causing it to pop and expand into porous granules. The nursery explains that it holds its shape in soil, has a neutral pH, and contains air pockets that keep a mix open while holding some water and letting the rest drain away. It is a common ingredient in potting mixes and is also used in hydroponics. The nursery also notes that perlite is a mined, non-renewable mineral.
