Sounds good man! Make sure you don't over do the perlite and might want to use alittle less nutes with watering. Sounds good though! My MG moisture control soil worked great for me and it sounds like you're just making your own. Nice job.

i used about 1/4 perlite to the 3/4 soil i put into the new 8 in pots...do you think that 8inch pots will serfice til the end or should i go up one more time before flowering? ive only been using the superthrive 1/4 teaspoon per gallon water...now watering about every 3rd day...im almost postitive the droopyness is not overwatering cause yesterday they were perked up lookin nice from the watering the day before...finished my flower room...converted shower into nice lookin flower chamber...MIGHT start 12/12 on 4/20 they will have had 2 weeks 24/7 and 3 weeks 18/6...we will see tho cause im in no hurry, wanna do it right and have some healthy big beautiful girls...seeds i planted the other day are starting to sprout...anyways everything is lookin good and i have the people here at RIU to thank(Gastanker! and everyone else!)

Sounds good man. DOes it say anywhere on the perlite how much they recommend use? Just curious. Also what ratio of nutes are in it. Grow room sounds good. Congrats! When do we get to see pictures?

You could always go to target and get CO2 cartridges. 10 pack is $6 - might be alil cheaper than constantly buying soda.
