Bark: Mimics a natural growing environment for epiphytic plants, retains some moisture, and allows roots to grasp onto the organic material.
Ratio: Determine the appropriate ratio of bark to perlite for your plants. A common starting point is a 50/50 ratio, but this can vary depending on the plant’s needs. More perlite provides extra drainage, and more bark increases water retention.
Pre-soaking Bark: Some gardeners prefer to soak the bark overnight to ensure it’s moist and to help it begin to break down, which allows it to hold moisture better.
Mixing: Mix the chunky perlite and bark in a container until you have a uniform blend.
