Is this vermiculite acceptable?
    #12550613 - 05/12/10 06:16 PM (14 years, 8 months ago)

It looks like it may be larger chunks than others, but can this be ground up and used in a bulk substrate?

Do you grind it up to make it more fine?

Thanks!

In my experience, Fine works well, Course works better.  THEY BOTH WORK.

Fine works good because it has more surface area than the coarse.  I use to use coarse because it thought it was airier (if thats a word) but switched to fine and didnt notice much of a difference, its all personal preference

I use the same brand it works fine. I've also tried the fine stuff from the lowes and it all does the same thing. You Can Do It!
