Vermiculite NZ
    #19028345 - 10/24/13 09:06 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

So I have hit yet another bump in the road to growing shrooms. I basically have everything I need now except vermiculite and brown rice flour. The brown rice flour shouldn't be a problem but the vermiculite has been. Although I've only been to 2 garden shops on my second attempt I was told that my chances of finding vermiculite around here are very slim and that's it's not often sold. Anyway does anyway in NZ have any experience buying vermiculite? If I can't find anywhere to buy I will just order online even though that sucks -.- . Or even are there any similar alternatives?

If there is a menards by you, they should have it in the insulation and building materials section outside.

There are no alternatives for verm.

Went and had a look at it and it is VERY fine. The Verm from Easygrow hydroponics is a nice med size and works well for me and the verm from hyalite hydroponics is quite course and I have not tried. The Coir from hyalite is good but I want to try the Easygrow blocks to cut down on the number of shops to visit to stock up.

Shipping is very reasonable from Easygrow so I will just get the verm and perlite through them

I have also found them to be FAR more helpful face to face. The team at hyalite seems to have very average customer service or willingness to help do anything slightly out of the box.
