Customers like the drainage of the soil. They mention that it contains too much dust, it's better drained in indoor plants, and it retains water. The water flows easily down and doesn't look compacted when is wet. It's lightweight, and typically formed by the hydration of obsidian, which helps increase its air and water permeability.

33 customers mention17 positive16 negative

Customers are mixed about the size of the perlite. Some mention that it's a pretty good size, but not as uniform as they would like. It's in good shape with small various sized chunks, and it'd be perfect for creating drainage. Others say that it was small and easily fell through the drainage holes. The perlite is organic, but some of the pieces were large enough to look like small. Overall, the product is mixed, and is suitable for various applications, but it'll not be suitable for small seedling trays.

"...They are perfect-sized and the pores aren't too big that it looks too much like styrofoam...." Read more

"As some other buyers said, the perlite pieces were a bit smaller than expected and was probably crushed a bit from shipping...." Read more

"...Other than that it's a great product and perfect size for household repotting use." Read more

"...They were a little smaller than I expected but that has no effect on their usefulness. This helped me lighten up some muddy... awful soil...." Read more

Works fine!

Works fine!
Works just fine! The potting soil I buy has some perlite in it, but not nearly enough for some of the dry climate plants I have. This stuff was great for bulking the soil and seems pretty quality. I don't know a lot about gardening, but this seems like it will help with the water weight soil compacting I've been fighting.
