Perlite¬†is an amorphous volcanic glass that has a relatively high water content, typically formed by the hydration of obsidian. It occurs naturally and has the unusual property of greatly expanding when heated sufficiently.

Perlite can be used as a soil amendment¬†¬†or alone as a medium for¬†hydroponics¬†or for starting¬†cuttings. When used as an amendment, it has high permeability and low water retention and helps prevent¬†soil compaction.¬†

While it does also help retain some water,¬†perlite¬†is primarily used to aerate compost. It excellent for creating a free-draining potting compost for¬†plants¬†that need¬†Products good drainage, such as cacti and succulents.
