SOILRITE-MIX

Soilrite-mix is a mixture of horticulture grade expanded perlite, Irish Peat moss and exfoliated vermiculite in equal ratio i.e., 1/3:1/3:1/3.

As Soilrite-mix contains peat moss with Vermiculite, Peat moss serves to increase water- holding capacity of the mix and the proportion of peat is just right to provide the plant the correct air / water ratio.

Packing Soilrite-mix is available in HDPE woven bags of 25 kgs net weight.

SOILRITE-C

Horticulture grade expanded Perlite [course material].

Perlite is an alumino-silicate of volcanic origin, which crushed and heated rapidly expands to form a white light weight stable aggregate, possessing a closed cellular structure. Water is retained only on aggregate surface and in pore spaces between aggregates - the result is a well-drained lightweight media, easy to handle and transport. The aggregate have good structural integrity and do not break down when utilized as a propagating media or in planting mixes. The development of a near ideal structural condition in growing and propagating media is made possible by SOILRITE-C.

APPLICATION
•  Horticulture
•  Floriculture
•  Media for Orchids cultivation

Packing: Available packed in HDPE woven bags of 10 kgs. Net weight.

KELPEAT & KELPEAT PLUS
