potting soil/perlite mixture

[headshake]

I use 20-30% perlite/soil, in any given size pot....I also put a thin layer of vermiculite, close to the bottom of my flowering 10 inch pots.

I use a $5 moisture meter to tell me when the vermiculite is dry. (cause, it holds moisture longer)...:thumbsup:

good lookin dutch. i have to do some dishes and clean up a little bit and then i'm gonna transplant.
