This substantial 25L pack of coarse-grade vermiculite features a unique micaceous structure that expands when heated, creating millions of microscopic plates that can absorb and hold several times their own weight in water. This high-capacity hydration ensures that developing roots have consistent access to moisture, significantly reducing the risk of dehydration in young seedlings and transplants. Naturally sterile, chemically inert, and pH neutral, Brunnings Vermiculite also possesses a high cation-exchange capacity, allowing it to hold onto essential nutrients and release them to the plant as needed. Whether you are blending high-performance potting mixes, managing professional seed-raising trays, or improving the moisture-holding capacity of garden beds, this high-grade vermiculite provides a stable, resilient, and highly effective environment for vigorous plant growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003chr\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maximizing moisture retention and nutrient availability in seed-raising mixes, professional propagation, and high-performance potting substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eExceptional Moisture Retention:\u003c\/strong\u003e The expanded mineral structure acts like a sponge, holding significant reservoirs of water to keep the root zone consistently hydrated.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eSuperior Nutrient Management:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a high cation-exchange capacity, which helps prevent nutrient leaching and ensures fertilizers are delivered efficiently to the plant.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eCoarse 3-6mm Grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e The larger particle size provides a perfect balance of high water-holding capacity while still allowing for essential aeration and structural stability.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eSterile \u0026amp; Chemically Inert:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides a clean, pathogen-free environment that is safe for delicate seeds and cuttings, and will not alter the pH balance of your growing medium.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Volume 25L Value Pack:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides an economical and efficient solution for large-scale nursery projects, bulk soil blending, or multiple seasonal plantings.\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brunnings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vermiculite\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coarse (3-6mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25L\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expanded Micaceous Mineral\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategories:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant Care And Propagation \/ Smaller Bags And Speciality Mixes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eIdeal For (Uses)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfessional Seed Raising:\u003c\/strong\u003e Covering seeds in trays to maintain the high humidity and consistent moisture required for successful germination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCustom Potting Mix Blending:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixing with perlite, peat moss, or coco peat to create moisture-retentive substrates for ferns, tropicals, and thirsty indoor specimens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRooting Cuttings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Providing a sterile and hydrated environment that encourages fast root establishment for softwood and hardwood cuttings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Conditioning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Incorporating into light or sandy garden soils to significantly improve their ability to retain water and essential nutrients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Multicrop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48124137177188,"sku":"31759","price":29.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/6487\/0244\/files\/31759.jpg?v=1774544411","url":"https:\/\/www.greenhousepolytunnels.com.au\/products\/brunnings-vermiculite-3-6mm-25l-professional-high-absorbency-growth-medium","provider":"Greenhouse \u0026 Polytunnels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
