There is no EXACT sub for verm in the PF tek. If you cannot find verm locally, why not order on/line?

I'm going through the same problem.

3 options:

1) wait for spring to come around so the stores will stock up again.

2) order online.

3) keep reading and go for casings.

I have everything but substrate material and I think I'm going to shoot for my first casing.

As I held the dark syringe close to my ear I heard a small voice, "If you build it, they will grow." With a quick jab at each jar, I injected two cc's in each. Soon enough, I was chomping on the sexiest handfull of nipples I had ever seen. A tear ran down my face. I could feel their warm touch soothing my soul. It was so beautiful that all I knew to do was cry out with laughter. All the love I had shown them was returned with the most concentrated and potent form of love known to man.
great sex

I've been thinking of this myself.
The only concern I could come up with would be ph issue (lime should handle that), and the right amount of peat moss needed. In the PF tek, verm. is only needed to hydrate...right?
While growing other plants, I've really never noticed a diffrence, between verm., and peat moss drying out any faster then the other.
Luckly though I've been able to find a bag of verm. at a local garden center. They had to go in the back to get it, but...
After TLG hooks me up for winning the contest, i'm gonna give it a shot with the rest of my syring of P. rican.
I just need to find out the correct PH of substrate.
