How much Perlite - 64qt Sterilite
    #14131673 - 03/16/11 03:15 PM (13 years, 15 days ago)

So I purchased this 64qt sterilite tub to be my SGFC.

Im at the garden store looking at perlite and they have 9L bags for 9$
Or a bag as big as me (6 foot) lol 22lbs for 30$

Can anyone help me figure out how much perlite ill need to fill the 64qt tub with the recommended 4-5 inches? The large bag I mentioned is such overkill.

Can perlite be re-used?

thanks, im very bad at math lol

Now can perlite be re used? i ask this because if its not, the super huge bag of it would be worth it for 10 more, but if it can be reused I wont need any more then the two 9l bags.

Hey guys

I love searching on my own and hate asking these questions i know have been asked probably 10x a month.

How come everytime I try searching simple topics I get all these response threads, and not the original topic.

I have to view every single response as a individual thread and makes it impossible to get to the goods!

I a mono tub design with four inches of perlite in the bottom. I put the shoe box size tubs I have made up partially submerged into the perlite. For the top I have gone to press and seal plastic wrap(this shit is the bomb). for the lid. I plug the holes with polly fill. This set up has never let me down even with PE. I don't fan or mist. The rh is high and the poly fill is loosely installed allowing plent of air flow t get in. Good luck and have fun. myc
