Is it safe to dry out vermiculite (Perlite) in a oven and if so at what temperature.?
I have some wet Perlite that I would like to dry out to store. I would like to know if it is safe to dry out in my kitchen oven. Or will it create toxic fumes?
Put it in the oven and dry it out. It is volcanic rock and there is no danger of any kind. If you heat it to at least 165 degrees for 30 minutes (at the coolest point) it will pasteurize the soil, meaning that at that temp any plant pathogenic fungi or bacteria will be killed.
The issue with Vermiculite was asbestos occuring in some of the early mines. The dust created during mining was hazardous. This issue has been resolved.
