I usually use mix of 2 parts of FOX FARM Light Warrior® Agro-Ponic® Grow Medium and 3 parts of FOX FARM Ocean Forest® Potting Soil. no additional ingriedents, such as perlite or vermiculite, are required... I've been using it for one year now... works perfect for me.
try this out.
peace
orange_cloud Reviewed by orange_cloud on . Perlite Was planning on trying out making a mix like alot of people do here. Was going to give the Fox Farm Ocean Forest,Perlite, and Vermicilite mix a try. Went to local lowes today to see if that had any perlite, the only thing I could find was http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=156581-446-74278300 was wondering if this is no good because its Enriched with Miracle Gro® liquid plant food. Should I head to the local garden shop to look for some other kind of perlite? Rating: 5
