When it comes to using perlite, you’ll find it’s pretty versatile - giving you a variety of ways to use it in your gardening ventures. So I used sharp sand. The pots were incredibly heavy, and I thought they must be getting far too wet under the mist propagator, but the cuttings rooted well. On potting on the compost is very fine - the sand has intermingled with the multi purpose to create a very fine media (maybe I rubbed it together well when mixing it, I can't remember). So it does seem to have done a good job. Dunno if I will damage more roots at potting on though - the mix doesn't fall off the roots as easily as Perlite.
