I think you're thinking too deeply into this. You can do it with no perlite, 10% perlite or 1/2 your soil mass perlite and you can still grow a successful plant. What you want to do is fugure out an overall strategy that works for you and your room. FWIW, I used to use a 1/3 ratio for many years, until I decided to try and cut my growing expenses, Then I used just a handful of perlite in my mix, and for the last two years, I've seen little or no difference in my harvests. I've probably spent $1000 on perlite in the last ten years.....

Damn nigga a whole stack! haha i bet ur pissed.
thx on info bra
