Get a peat or coco based growing media and just add some perlite, I know the nursery near me has both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420SA Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Not just peat and perlite as that will be inert. You'll need compost in there too. Or a good potting soil 1part peat moss or coco, 1 part perlite and 1 part compost or potting soil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
