Cant find perlite around my country but i found some round rocks really small i would say perlite size... can this work?? Without afecting something? Ofc i will prev put em in the oven
 
Perlite is sold as insulation too so chech those sources. I've never used gravel..sorry. Can you get pumice?
 
Get a bag online. Like ebay or something. They're cheap

Or use styrofoam packaging material maybe. Tear them up and through them in the soil.
 
Perlite is important because it absorbs water and makes that water available to the plant instead of just running out the bottom.
Any good organic soil with 10-20% perlite is what I use. Miracle-Gro Potting Mix works for me.
