Yep, the wood chips are for drainage but the perlite does the same thing. I found if you buy a really big bag at Home Depot the perlite is bigger in size, not so fine. I only fertilize with Miracle Grow but that's just me. I personally would give it a shot of MG now. My growing season is short enough and I'm not patient.

Nice living so close to Lake MI.
