Wait! I know this backstory! #Libby #Montana #Vermiculite #WillfulBlindness #Legal youtu.be/Kn5JRgz3W0o?...

🏚️ That gray, pebble-like insulation in your attic? It might be vermiculite — and a lot of it was contaminated with asbestos.
Don’t disturb it. Don’t sweep it.
Test it first. Stay safe.

#perlite or #vermiculite - even horticultural students find this hard to remember. A rough rule, perlite, pearly white, hard gritty well drained, potting on or dry loving plants. Vermi - culite - as those 'verms' like it a little moist, for seedlings, or moisture loving plants. #ukGardens

Hand in light blue nitrile globe holds up a Sea Grape seed to camera which is mounted directly above the scene. Below the hand are 14 small black, plastic plant pots that are filled with a soil mix of perlite and coco coir. There is a finger sized depression in the centre of each pot. The pots are arranged next to each other on top of a round wooden stool which itself is on top of a grass lawn that has white flowers growing on it.

Basic version of the sowing process for my ‘Sowing Sea Grape in England’ experiment! 🤣

The scientific name for it is Coccoloba uvifera and it’s a tropical plant… I bought the seeds online in 2021!
