Hey, I'm going to grow some soon. I want to find a place in NY that would sell Vermiculite and perlite. If anyone can drop me a PM or LMK I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

Uline stores sell 2 4 cubic feet bags of vermiculite for like 50 bucks. It's for shipping hazardous chemicals. Unless you're making huge tubs this should be plenty for a while. Perlite can be had at the nearest Home Despot or Lowes or WalMart or any other horticulturaly inclined place.

Is there anything I could get for cheaper? I am using the PFTEK system.
also, how long for it to grow and be usable?

The Home Depot I went to didn't sell it and the guy I asked kinda smiled and looked at me funny. Your's could be different. I'm not going to search through NY's HomeDepots, WalMarts, Lowes, and garden centers for you, much less websites for you. And do a search.

This is the actual pic of it, taken couple of weeks ago:

Where I live (Southern US), I found Perlite at Home Depot, but not at Lowes, and I found Vermiculite at Lowes, but not Home Depot. If you aren't near any home improvement stores like that, I'd just drop the dough and buy it on ebay or from Uline. It'll last you a while, not that it's really that expensive anyway.

I've managed to get everything I need from walmart. But they are rotating stock for winter. The gardening supplies won't show up again till late winter early spring. Lowes seems to keep things around longer than Home Depot. I now it only takes an hour to drive out of NY city to farm land, do a search for Tractor Supply Company(or something to that effect), any of the agriculture stores will carry this stuff year 'round all the way to syringes and needles(they use them for livestock). Good Luck
-------------------- Damn! I'm having fun! Just keep the GD monkeys away.
