Will venus seeds grow without perlite or silica sand?

I have peat moss and will plan to buy pertile on next weekend.

Yep, pure peat moss will work fine, but it's better to use a medium that isn't so "dense" and that stays so soggy for so long like pure peat moss does.

Thanks. I'll try to find perlite, organic safe. But i had looked in 4 stores and found only miracle gro. I bought Sprahguam moss , very pure. So im wondering if that is okay perlite? http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1260 ... ockType=G1

If that wasnt safe, i'll go for therm perlite.

That perlite looks safe to use
