I have used this before. though i haven't carried out enough work with it to fully get behind it. What i will say is that i think it is full of good nutrients. as long as you pasteurize properly than you should get good results.
let us know if you find something else

Thinking of starting a little UK webshop for mycology supplies. Seems like the vendors we have aren't all that great sometimes.
What think you, comrades?
I tend to buy things in bulkier quantities when I can, so it only makes sense to parcel things up in smaller quantities and sell them to you bozos at big markups 
I just bought everythingmushrooms out of 70mm filter discs, so there's one thing I'll have to sell on (gotta find out who supplies those vendors in the US). It's only 8 dozen this time, but if anyone is in need, hit me up.
What other sorts of things do you guys have trouble getting from UK suppliers? Peat moss springs immediately to mind. AAs obviously, but I might not stock that kind of expensive stuff right away. I suppose I'll be reading back through these threads for ideas...

Most newbe for the UK are after prints or grow kits . A grow kit would be easy to put together and you could make a killing. Just a idea

shroomzi8, they are very nice guys. They do grow kits etc and seem to be constantly expanding their stock.
Won't mention their website by name as they aren't a sponsor (far as I know without checking..)

do you guys know any place where i can buy gypsum online? unfortunately in my country only gypsum i can get is lab-quality (about 28£ for kilo, haha), so i figured it will probably cost the same to ship few kilos from UK. GardenDirect.co.uk wont reply my emails :/
cheers.

Hi All,
Just wanted to say that Im UK based and I got almost everything I needed from Azarius, who are based in Holland.
Great service and delivery was only £5 which I thought was fairly cheap!
They also supply great plastic jars from BRF Tek growing, which Ive put through a pressure cooker and they were all fine (make sure the lid is ajar though!).

Bump. And shameless self quote.
Just received my order of coir from "fertile fibre". From as little as 88p each, if you buy 20 bricks or more.
These bricks are not as compressed as the 'eco earth' brand. They're the same weight, but twice as thick. A good thing I think. As I only normally use ~200g at a time it will make slicing off the amount I wont to use that much easier.
Make sure to check out their:
verm 60L £19.20 perlite 60L £16.80
All with DELIVERY AND VAT INCLUDED.

Cheap jar lids and jars at preserve shop ( http://www.preserveshop.co.uk/jam-jar-lids/mason-jar-lids?zenid=70a0864e1296a507fd64a6674211f576 ), 15% off everything until the end of August.
Good for mason jars etc.
Did this thread just die or what?? The posting options are really minimal, not sure why..

How's the UK massive doing anyway? Seems like a few of the regular contributors to this thread and the previous UK supply thread have vanished/stopped posting on the boards.
Hope y'all are doing good and enjoying the last few weeks of summer.

yeah not that far out Egodeathflux, I'm over Somerset way mate. nice one on the lib beauties there. they've always been my favourites by far, they're beautiful! had a search around here the past couple of years but no joy, so I'm gonna have to head out Wales way, that's where the bad boys are. or maybe just wait for my cyanofriscosas
best of luck mate!

Yo guys! Found the first liberty of the year. Fist time going out and its been really wet here lately.
Been really busy with work life etc. Thinking about getting a big book shelf full of stone jars. Been meaning to for a while just dont have a lab set up atm. Have a place to do it but just haven't had the time. It's in the works soon though. ' Hope all is well with everyone!
