Boom Nutrients Perlite uses and recommendations

Perlite improves the airflow of soil and coco coir, although it also provides great results in hydroponic grows. For substrates, the recommendation is to add 20-30% max to the mixture. For hydroponics, the pH needs to be stabilized at around 5.5 before using it. Let it soak for 24 h, until pH reaches the recommended parameters.
