Try the cultivation forum. But yes, you can. Try Jiffy Mix or coco coir.

sterilized potting soil has been used.
Coco Coir is a pet shop staple.
Verm can be had from shipping places as a packing material.

This should all be in the cultivation forum tho mang.
Welcome. :heart:

I have never heard of using sand... I think that would not work.. due to sand not absorbing water.. and how it tends to clump together when wet. Sand would not make a good casing layer.. it would probably suffocate it.

Coco coir you can find at any pet shop. Look in the Reptile section.. it's used for reptile bedding.
