So you grow in only perlite?
If so, how does it do compare to a soil/perlite mix?
Yeah only perlite.
I used to grow in my own soil I made myself. Almost organic. Was good but a lot of work when it came time to finish a grow and start again.
I find perlite easier to use, store and handle than soil.
Never had a pest with perlite. Perlite requires at least twice the watering of soil and uses a lot more nutrients so that's a negative. Plants veg a little quicker in perlite.

I just use Mega Crop mate. Add a bit of cal mag here and there and some PK boost every 2nd or 3rd water from week 4 onwards.
I used to use soil I made myself but storing it and the change over from grow to grow became tedious. I use it over coco because it's much more pH stable and it can dry right out. I'm lazy as fock so they often miss a water.
