How To Use
Mix Vitax Horticultural Vermiculite into your existing compost or growing medium to improve structure and water retention.

When lightening heavy clay-based soils for container planting, blend thoroughly until you achieve the desired texture and drainage properties.
Tips & Advice
For best results with seed germination, ensure the vermiculite is evenly distributed throughout your seed compost and keep consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period. When using for rooting cuttings, vermiculite’s excellent moisture-holding properties reduce the need for frequent misting, helping delicate cuttings establish roots more successfully.
