- Water retention: Vermiculite has the ability to retain water, providing a reservoir of moisture for plants in between watering. This is particularly useful in hotter climates or during periods of drought.
- Aeration: Vermiculite is a lightweight material that can help improve soil aeration. This can promote root growth and nutrient uptake in plants.
- Soil structure: Vermiculite can improve soil structure by preventing compaction and maintaining a loose, crumbly texture. This can promote healthy soil and better plant growth.
- pH neutral: Vermiculite is pH neutral, which means it does not affect the pH of the soil. This makes it a great option for gardeners who need to maintain a specific soil pH for their plants.
- Insulation: Vermiculite acts as an insulator, helping to regulate soil temperature. This can be particularly useful in areas with fluctuating temperatures, as it can help plants adjust to sudden changes in weather
