    You might consider using rice hills as replacement for perlite in the mix as a partial source.

    I would suggest supplying potassium silicate or a silicon product as a foliar in the greenhouse, since they are in a mostly organic media.

    The additional silicon will produce much harder leaf exteriors and reduce water loss and transplant shock.
