Im wanting to use this for a mix with my carnivorous plants, would it be safe? I don't want to burn them

Yes our organic perlite would be perfect for Carnivorous plants! Happy Plantings!

Can I mix it with peat? If so how can i do it

The best mix would be 40% Perlite and 60% for cuttings or seed starting!

Does it absorb water?

Perlite is used in the garden to prevent soil compaction, improve aeration and retain moisture. ... To answer your question YES is does absorb water. However Perlite will dry out too rapidly for water-loving plants.
