Vermiculite has been used for years to amend professional potting soils made from peat moss (called "soilless" mixes or artificial soils because they literally contain no soil).It also has been used in outdoor mixes, in turfgrass and outdoor plantings, for gardens, for special 100% vermiculite growing applications, and increasingly for commercial and amateur hydroponic growing and water conservation (especially in landscaping and gardening).

Essentially vermiculite is used in the horticultural industry because it provides aeration and drainage, it can retain and hold substantial amounts of water and later release it as needed, it is sterile and free from diseases, has a fairly neutral pH, and it's readily available, non-toxic, safe to use, and relatively inexpensive.
