Help me with Perlite

[zyggi]

I have Canna Coco Profesional plus+ and just wondering is it good to add up some perlite in it and top it with some clay ?

I like a 50/50 mix with perlite. I think it gives me more control over watering. As for clay I wouldn't, I think that would just defeat the purpose.

depends on how often you want to water. perlite does hold some water, but not as much as coconut fiber, so more perlite means more watering more frequently.

and the joke to your thread title...

'dude, you don't need help with perlite, that shit's about as heavy as cotton...'

the joke was that perlite is extremely light weight when dry.

i would certainly cut with perlite, personally would go 50% so i wouldn't have to run plumbing to water them on a timer. either will work, but you may have better results with more perlite and more frequent waterings/feedings...
