Medium grades are used when more drainage is wanted or required. If possible, particles should be processed to give maximum, physical strength. Softer grades or particularly light, well processed perlite particles will break down, absorbing excess water and contributing to more soil compaction. Soils, on which turf is grown, are subject to foot traffic and maintenance problems. Proper use of perlite will reduce the problems of turf management.
Keeps soil loose and friable.
