Super fine material
4 Stars
Super fine material
It is indeed vermiculite, so I couldn't give it too few stars, but it is really fine stuff, almost like coarse sand. Perhaps "professional grade" means super fine? I use vermiculite for seed starting and much prefer the coarser material. Perhaps it will work alright, but I was surprised.
