Miracle-Gro Perlite

Is it ok to use Miracle-Gro perlite?

Ive heard people say it has nutes in it, but im not sure about that. Its probably the same as any other perlite. If its got nutes in it, it should say on the back of the bad. Even if it does it wont be enough to matter

sure its ok to use MG perlite, myself i ve always get em at the home depot for about four dollars.

the perlite is inert, nothings in the lavas , trust me...for your safely

OSHA considers perlite dust to be merely a nuisance dust, presenting no out-of-the-ordinary safety issues. It contains very little quartz content, and is not associated with asbestos. Of course normal precautionary measures should be taken, such as avoiding getting perlite in the eyes or ingesting it.

there you go.

Peace

i use miracle gro perlite if the store is out of a lighter soil mix to cut my soil with, never had any problems.

i'll go check the bag to see if it has nutes, i thought i remember seeing that they put some N in it.

I have a bag here, and it has an analysis of .04-.01-.06, 'enriched with Miracle Grow plant food'.....

guaranteed analysis

N - 0.04%
P - 0.01%
K - 0.06%

would post a pic, but the pic thing seems to be all fucked up.

sure the perlite may have .01% nutes but thats nothing to get your panties in a bunch. if you really want to save money go to a nursery or pikes.
