I have discovered the YouTube videos done by Walter Pall after seeing a link, I believe, on this site but I am not sure.
He has so much knowledge but is easy to understand. I love how practical he is .
The last few days I've been watching his videos when I got the chance. It put me more at ease trying a substrate that was non organic. I have a couple of little plants that I am trying my new mixture on, just to see how they do.
I worry that I still have some too small particles in the mix, but they are still bigger than normal garden soil. Trial and error. I used a kitchen strainer that the squares are about 1/16th of an inch, about 1.5 mm. I read somewhere 3mm to 6mm was a good size to sift to. Any input is appreciated to help, put my mind at easy or offer constructive ideas

Where did you read that? 6mm seems far too big to me. 1.5 mm should be fine.

Colin Lewis says:
"My preferred particle size for drainage material is 1.5 - 3mm"

Thanks once again Auk. You have put my mind at ease. I don't know where I read it. I've listened to so much and read so much. I thought 6mm was big also.
I'm going to have to check out your referenced site. I am starting to make a list of all these sites so I don't miss and good 'stuff'.
So many talented people who I would love to shadow for years and soak up their knowledge.

Hey I need some help with making a non-organic mix. I can't get akadama around me so exclude that from the mix.

and it rains a lot here.

Then why don't you make a topic asking for help?
Or, better yet, you could use the search function to read other topics with the same question.
