The toms were planted in pure perlite. Produced 8' tall plants. I was bummed when the blight came and I lost all of those nice plants. Fed nutrients 3 times a day. All plants supported on (hay) baling twine. Nice root structure and no weeds.
Based on the responses, I decided to toss out the questionable perlite and start over in the spring. The greenhouse will have plastic covering it as well as the shade cloth. I'm preparing to move some tender ferns into the greenhouse when the cold temps come.
Thanks for all the replies,
