ok. i'd like to use these things. worm castings, bat guano etc.. but im not in my home country here and with the language barrier + the fact that i'd rather be viewed as just another guy just buying compost. i dont think its going to be an option.
also buying from the internet isnt really what i want to be doing either. so far ive managed to stay away from any 'hydro' shops and i know i can get everything i need from 1 or 2 'normal' places.

i suppose if i have to buy plant food i will. i'd really rather not. but i will.
in fact im not even overly keen on the idea of paying for soil.
why cant i just go dig some up and put it through the oven for 45 mins at 80c?
