Perlite 1 Liter – Premium Growing Medium for Mushroom Cultivation & Plants

This 1 liter perlite is a high-quality and lightweight growing medium widely used in mushroom cultivation, horticulture and hydroponics. It is ideal for improving aeration, drainage and moisture control in growing environments.

Perlite is a natural volcanic mineral that expands when heated, creating a porous and lightweight structure. This structure helps retain moisture while allowing oxygen to reach roots or mycelium, supporting healthy and stable growth.

Ideal for Mushroom Cultivation

Perlite is commonly used in mushroom growing setups such as monotubs, fruiting chambers and terrariums. It helps maintain the correct humidity levels by absorbing and slowly releasing water, creating a stable microclimate.

This makes it especially suitable for species that require high humidity during fruiting, including psilocybin, oyster and gourmet mushrooms. The use of perlite supports consistent growth and reduces the risk of drying or contamination.

Improves Aeration and Drainage

The porous structure improves oxygen flow and prevents waterlogging. This supports healthy root systems in plants and optimal mycelium development in mushroom substrates.

Perlite is also widely used in:

• Hydroponics and soil mixes

• Seed starting and propagation

• Indoor and outdoor gardening

• Greenhouses and grow tents

Lightweight and Easy to Use

Perlite is lightweight, sterile and easy to handle. It can be used directly from the package or mixed with other substrates such as coco coir, vermiculite or soil.

It is reusable after cleaning and does not decompose over time, making it a durable and cost-effective growing medium.

At 123Smartshop.com, we carefully select high-quality mushroom cultivation and smartshop supplies designed to support reliable and efficient growing. Perlite is often combined with vermiculite, coco coir, heat mats and humidity meters to create a complete growing setup.
