Perlite
โฆ Perlite is a natural volcanic glass, typically formed from the hydration of obsidian.
โฆ When heated to high temperatures (around 1000ยฐC), perlite expands dramatically, forming small, white granules with numerous tiny air pockets
โฆ Allows better oxygen circulation to plant roots
โฆ Helps retain moisture while preventing waterlogging.
Mycorrhizae
๐ค Orchid mycorrhizae are endomycorrhizal fungi which develop symbiotic relationships with the roots and seeds of plants of the family Orchidaceae.
- The fungi colonize the roots and form a network of filaments called mycelium. In exchange for sugars produced by the plant, the mycorrhizae help to increase the surface area of the roots, improve water and nutrient uptake, and protect the roots from pathogens.
๐ค Contains mycorrhizae, bacteria and trichoderma.
๐ค Establishes beneficial soil microbes.
