The easiest way to make this mixture is to use a large container. Pour an equal amount of Perlite and peat moss into the container. Once you have a 50/50 mix, shake the container until it is well mixed together. Alternatively, you can stir the mixture with a trowel, but this can get messy. Once you have your soil mixture, you are ready to start planting.
