The neighbor behind me used to grow trees he stole from his work. He also had about 3-5 greenhouses setup back there. God know what he was growing with those, I was only 8 at the time when they tore them down. Now that I'm getting into indoor growing I was wondering if there would be anything of use back there. I scoped out the site and there is tons of stuff. Pots I can use from seedlings to full maturity. There is also a pile of what I assume is Perlite. I'm wondering if this is in deed Perlite or some other substance. It did seem it was composed of Styrofoam so who knows. Also what are the benefits of Perlite. I would be growing in soil so could I mix some in to help retain water? Also when I'm back there give me a list of what to look for that could benefit the grow. There's all kinds of pvc tubing and other stuff. Creative comments would help as I am good with my hands. Hopefully someone has actually read all of this and can help me out.
