BTW, when I was visiting California Carnivores Peter D'Amata
disclosed to me that he uses peat/perlite mixtures, with very
fine perlite. He said it works just as good as peat sand, and
the pots are a lot lighter. I tried it, and it seems to be a
good deal. Put a later of straight peat on top though to keep
the perlite from floating if you water fro above.

Pots are veeeeeery light this way.j
