Heavy clay soil holds onto water in all the wrong ways, and vermiculite is one of the simplest fixes for it. This expanded mineral is clean, sterile and lightweight, opening up dense soil so roots get air while still holding onto moisture where it's needed.

Being sterile, it doesn't bring weed seed or disease along for the ride, which matters most for seed raising, propagation and hydroponic setups where you want a clean start. Blend it through potting mixes or dig it straight into clay beds that have been sitting heavy and waterlogged.

5 litres covers a decent stretch of bed or a good batch of trays.
