*If I attempt to make my own, I will use 30% perlite. I like Chunky Perlite.
This helped me, made me dig and find out what promixHP was, because I assumed it was around 15%-20%, and you're dead-on Barb, 25%-35% perlite
Which explains why my 10% perlite pots for flowers were so much more difficult to take water, less perlite to break up a mat of crusting peat.
Nice thread for facts and tidbits, thanks villians.
