lots use 50/50 some 70/30
i am going to do 6 plants all autoflower so i am talking about small pots ....maybe 70 / 30 is better?
depends on how often you want to water. perlite does hold some water, but not as much as coconut fiber, so more perlite means more watering more frequently.

and the joke to your thread title...

'dude, you don't need help with perlite, that shit's about as heavy as cotton...'

the joke was that perlite is extremely light weight when dry.

i would certainly cut with perlite, personally would go 50% so i wouldn't have to run plumbing to water them on a timer. either will work, but you may have better results with more perlite and more frequent waterings/feedings...
