Perlite significantly increases the yield
As it is known, plants depend of air, water, corresponding temperature conditions and availability of nutritive materials. The longer and more intensively the earth is exploited the less nutrients remain in it; the worse becomes its structure, which results in poorer plant growth. If you put more fertilizers into the ground it can end up by accumulating salts and increasing osmotic pressure of ground solution that also thwarts the plants.
To avoid such negative consequences you need to use Circulite. This ecologically clean material allows not only to loosen earth, ensure gradual water return, free access to the plants roots and stable temperature environment but also it makes it possible to grow ecologically sound plants in radioactive nuclide-rich ground.
Why perlite
- Ecologically clean material, light, chemically inert, without a smell
- Provides air access to the roots of plant, protects from temperature drop
- Absorbs and returns moisture
- Conducts nutritive materials
- Improves drainage
- Allows to reduce acidity of soil and detains the processes of soil accumulation (PH = 6,5 -7,5 neutral)
- Provides resistance of soils the microbe putrefaction
Perlite conveys fresh air to plant’s roots
98% of all oxygen gets to plants through their roots. If in solid soils the plant’s system is plugged and is preventing the oxygen from coming in the plant stifles and dies. All you need to do to solve this problem is to add some Circulite: it will render soils friable and air-penetrable.
Perlite “tank” “waters” the plant from within
The major problem in the plants growing process is that they need permanent and moderate watering. It is necessary to make sure the plant gets enough water and this water does not evaporate forming a solid crust. You also need to make sure the soil does not get overheated. The best technique of solving these issues is to apply Circulite.
The trick is that the perlite pellets that you need to add to soil represent miniature water tanks. When watered, perlite absorbs water (up to 400% of its mass). Since this material is very water-repellent, it gradually shares the moisture with environment so that the layer of soil mixed with perlite gets evenly moistened. The most needed water is imbibed by plant roots. Moreover, when the perlite pellets give away their moisture they immediately “borrow” it from their neighbours. The upper soil layer will get partially dry under the sun without forming the crust and in the meantime perlite will provide moisture from the lower layers to plant roots.
Another factor that positively influences the plant is the perlite’s white colour. It is explained by the white colour’s ability of reflecting light. Thanks to this property, the light and thermal energy of the sun gets directly to the inner side of leaves and prevents the ground from getting overheated.
With perlite the stable temperature is guaranteed
Penetration of cold of heat to the plant’s roots is the direct function of the soil density. The more solid it is the slower is the progress of energy: soil is slower in getting warm and cold. Another tip: if you put perlite into the ground it becomes more friable, which, in its turn, provides for a stable temperature conditions and precludes soil’s overheating and freezing.
Perlite is the conductor of nutrients
Nutrients in the form of water solutions get into plant through its roots. The soil mixed with perlite is a wonderful environment for migration of water and of all nutrient substances immediately to the “destination point”. Initially these substances are accumulated in perliteå and only then seep into roots.
With perlite you will have neither animal pests nor weeds
Perlite is the natural component of artificial substrates. Thanks to its quality of getting extended under high temperatures it can repel animal pests or weeds harming the plants.
