Horticultural perlite has a long and enviable record ofperformance as a propagating and growing medium throughout the world. It has beensuccessfully used in virtually all horticultural applications includingglasshouse growing, landscaping, lawn and stadium turf and in a variety ofcontainer applications. Time and time again it has proven its superiority inmeeting the needs of commercial growers and home gardeners. Hydroponic culture isno exception. Extensive testing over a period of years has documented thesuperiority of perlite over other methods of hydroponic culture. For example,tomato crops hydroponically grown in perlite have produced yields 7 higher thancrops grown in rockwool. In addition to significantly increased yields, perliteculture is particularly easy to manage and offers additional benefits.
