Perlite sterilization?

#635118 - 05/18/02 05:36 AM (22 years, 3 months ago)

I need to "bake" my wet perlite, what temperature should I set the oven to, should I cover the perlite with aluminum foil, and how long should it "bake"? Thanks.

I just replace my wet perlite with dry new stuff.Pick up a bag for $2.It's too much of a hassel baking it IMO. I did it a couple times with a small table top oven and set it to broil for an hour or so, but I didn't think it was worth the time.

no need to bake your perlite.

if you are going to reuse it ....follow what vatoloco told you to do.
that was some good advise
