Well if you were seeing my previous post would know that things wasnt going really well. Itrasplanted them outside first day under sun got a little burn. Thenmoved them under a tree shadow . One of them died and the other three are not growing at all and i am just waiting them to die to. Ibought a new seed gorilla coockies auto with the new lamp i posted and took soil from a spot that everything i used to plant there ended up gorwing huge and healthy. Didnt put perlite cause after the first try that failed i started suspected my locals shop perlite and soil i bought . I might be wrong but dont want to risk it . Ihave a fan to blow for the soil to dry. I am also gonna buy lemon ak auto thats good for hot climates . Ijust wanted to ask that i am thinking of taking soil from nature near a river that is full of plane trees that every year drop the leaves and cover the soil . Thereis a lot of small green flowerrs growing there along with lilies that is a good sign. Nature knows better. I know i must mix it with perlite but i dont trust it . Isthere anything that i cpuld do like wash him before put him

It's important to understand the function of perlite in your medium. Basically it's inert, 100% natural, and does not add any nutrient value to the soil but it does create an environment for organic life to flourish. It creates the conditions for healthy root growth, helps with water retention in the root system, and optimizes drainage capabilities. You mention that you moved them outside but not if they were in a container or not. It's hard to offer any suggestions without knowing what kind of soil you're growing in.

I don't know what happened either. You offer scant details so it's impossible to offer advice. My first grow many years ago I used a soil amendment that contained steer manure instead of a potting mix and my seedlings burned up like a house on fire.
