I'm sure you can do it, but it will not be forgiving at all. It will require ultra-vigilance in monitoring over-watering.
If you are too poor to buy pearlite, just buy some styrofoam cups or use packing peanuts, crumble them up and use it like you would pearlite.
you don't need vermiculite, but you need some sort of medium to break up the soil to allow aeration.

Your basic soil recipes for growing will always include the following
Soil - 40%
Peat Moss - 60%
Perlite - 30% by volume
Plus additional fertilizers - Blood Meal, Bone Meal, and Kelp Meal
Also Dolomite lime for PH buffering
There are numerous soil mixes out there, Just keep it simple and you will be ok

Just a tip, peat moss will acidify your soil slowly, its best to add dolomite lime to your mix to counteract the effect. I personally only use 20-25% peat moss in my soil
That's still 130%! LMFAO!

I use scotts and miracle grow lol I have some pretty healthy plants. I love my lady's don't get me wrong but I think people forget what cannabis is. Its a WEED, anything will help butt it will still grow in less than optimal conditions. Go for it add nutes and molasses whatever you have. Best of luck on your grow.
