I wonder how a Perlite and Vermiculite mix would perform.
Hello,
If I am using Espoma organic seed starter for my seedling trays for my veggies do I need to add vermiculite? I think the Espoma has perlite in it to I didn’t know if they can be combined?
Thanks for the video.
saw the same girl while trying home made mead
whats a nook and cranny 😱, sounds horrible for my bonsai
I used both mixed, just get Organic and not miracle grow
Thank you. Really helpful for my try with mushrooms.
Can I use 1/4 perlite in bottom of wicking pot ,and 1/2 potting mix and 1/4 vermiculite for celery seeds to grow. Or should i have vermiculite on bottom and perlite on top.Thanks
Compost is worst thing u can use it has slow release of nutrients and its smell can bring bad bugs..
Instead use red worms humus
Véry informative video thanks
I learned a lot Thanks great
Especially good when you summed up, I hope you now know the difference between perlite and vermiculite – pointing to the wrong ones, almost sent me back to square one LOL
Commercial potting soil often has white nodules in it that I’ve always assumed were styrofoam. Is that a possibility and does it serve a similar purpose? Or does it just help with compaction?
Awsome video love you guy
