Wonders Garden

Helps retain moisture, helps with fungus gnats, like you mentioned helps with overwatering/washing away perlite, and I use it occasionally when they’re young for the added stability.

For me with these little cups it’s easier and less messy than using straw. When I move them to larger containers later I will keep some with hydroton, some with straw, and some with straw/cover crop.
