[quote=InToker;60321]To be honest I didn't add anything to it. would they have this at home depot?
They should...if not check walmart. Perlite is readily available and i don't believe there is a specific type you need. I grabbed whatever what least expensive.
In addition to adding perlite to the soil. I lined the bottom of the pot with newspaper and added a couple inches of perlite to the bottom, enough to cover the runoff puka (hole), and added my soil on top. One thing to add would be dolomite lime. It doesn't take much, it buffers the ph, adds micro/macro nutes, and is typically recommended by soil users. For the dolomite lime, you may have to go to a garden shop...not expensive.
