Gro-Sure Vermiculite 10L – Light, Natural Material for Stronger Root Growth

The Gro-Sure Vermiculite 10L bag is a natural, lightweight mineral that helps seeds and young plants develop strong roots by improving soil structure, moisture retention, and aeration. When mixed with compost or used on its own, vermiculite provides the ideal environment for germination, ensuring healthy, vigorous seedlings.

Because it holds water while still allowing air to circulate, vermiculite is especially useful for fine seeds, cuttings, and plants that require consistent moisture levels. It’s a trusted choice for gardeners who want healthier seedlings, stronger plants, and reliable results – whether in seed trays, pots, or garden beds.

General Information

Vermiculite is a naturally occurring mineral that expands when heated, creating a lightweight, spongy texture perfect for horticultural use. Gro-Sure Vermiculite is carefully processed to provide a high-quality, consistent medium.

• Pack size: 10 litres – ideal for seed sowing, potting, and soil improvement.

• Lightweight & clean: Easy to handle, mess-free, and safe for indoor or outdoor use.

• Moisture retention: Holds water and releases it gradually, preventing compost from drying out too quickly.

• Improved aeration: Creates air pockets in compost, supporting healthy root growth.

• Seed coverage: Can be sprinkled over fine seeds to hold moisture and reduce disturbance.

• Cuttings & seedlings: Protects delicate roots and ensures consistent moisture during early growth.

• Soil conditioner: Helps lighten heavy soils when mixed in, improving drainage and structure.

This makes Gro-Sure Vermiculite one of the most versatile and valuable materials for successful propagation and plant care.
