I have gemae on the way in the mail.
So I want to give it the best start I can.
A big glazed ceramic pot like 6 to 8 inches tall
is what I'm going to use.
However I can't find perilite or silica sand.
Is there something that I can buy that is silica sand or some other substrate ?
Could I crush pumice(crushed lava rock)
into a grainy sandy powder then use it ?
I know they like sandy drained substrate,
but I am not sure how to facilitate it.
I really appreciate the help,
Josh M
