Why does FoxFarm call it Big & Chunky? Extra-big chunks of perlite provide the best drainage for superior root aeration. Use it in containers with Ocean Forest or Happy Frog Potting Soil to improve drainage, keep roots oxygenated, and prevent plants from becoming waterlogged.
Hydroponic growers know that Big & Chunky is the ultimate hydroponic grow medium. Use it as a stand-alone product or combine it with FoxFarm's Light Warrior Agro-Ponic Grow Medium, and enjoy added benefits of mycorrhizae (a beneficial fungi species that promotes root growth and enhances fertilizer uptake).
