Promix (peat) and perlite make a great medium and is used by many folk. It's lighter than soil and by making it even lighter with the added perlite you should get some great root growth. I prefer soiless since it has no nutrients in it, that way you can control nute concentration better.
phillykid420 Reviewed by phillykid420 on . QUESTION on soilless medium Would a soilless medium be better than soil assuming it dries out faster. For example if I had a mixture that would completely dry out in a day and I was able to water every other day using a five gallon bucket. I would use 50% perlite 25% peat and 25% sand. Would this increase yield without the risk of messing up like a hydro system? I would also use floragro 3 part nutrients. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Rating: 5
