This stuff gets pretty big, but is mostly medium-sized.

I tried to show the average size in this pic --

It's a million times easier to break the bigger chunks down into smaller ones than it is to use that sand-grain shit any day. (except for cakes-- the fine-grain treated me well there...)

Here's the link to an online source, as posted a bit above by the illustrious agar, which gives their pricing :

http://www.uline.com/Browse_Listing_3801.asp?searchedkeywords=vermiculite

Shipping will vary depending on where you live-- it gives you a place to calculate based on your zip code. The verm was $21 a bag-- but they require a 2 bag minimum purchase. Little pricey in all, but like you see-- I now have enough verm to garden an entire lawn's worth :wink:

It can be-- I know they use vermiculite in the in-ground pool business. ULINE sells it as a packing material for liquids.

Classify it whatever way you like... it's all substrate hydration to me!

I was expecting to see 40 lbs. of dried shrooms in this thread when I read the title...

I'm sorta dissapointed.

:frown:



and I'm trying to see the point of this thread...

is there one?

or are you just showing off your 2 large bags of Verm?

    #6780116 - 04/12/07 07:10 PM (16 years, 11 months ago)

I posted this thread because of an almost universal mention I've seen with people not being able to find larger, non-fine grade verm.
So I found some, from a place that ships everywhere, to anyone.

I shared it with the community, and I used a witty trick in my title to ensnare the unaware into the thread (which appears to have worked, hehe).
I didn't realize it would be looked at as a problem.

I'm sorry if you don't see a point in it.
:cheers:

Depends on if the 40lbs. was powdered or left whole.  You could get 40 powdered in a single garbage bag I imagine:D

As for the verm, Uline is where I have to get mine too.  Its usually hard to find locally.  Uline has Grade 4(Large chunk) and Grade 2(Medium size) available.  I like the large for substrates and the medium for casing.  Go Uline !!

I, however, was disappointed too; I've never seen 40lbs of dried shrooms, and was looking forward to a treat.
