Getting off the island requires a boat or airplane. There's no bridge. So "going to town" is a pilgrimage we do once or twice a year. It takes a full day by ferry to even get to the closest town, and then it's 3 days before there's a ferry home. Sometimes I appear ignorant of simple technologies that the rest of you take for granted, and sometimes I'll write about really bizarre home made solutions to problems that you folks just throw money at. This is why. And it's why after 35 years of indoor/outdoor growing, the rockwool is a new concept for me. Alas, I'll probably never find any to play with. But thanks for the info on where to find it!

I have kinda the same problem, I live in the caribbean.
We do not have growshops and stuff like that.
Sometimes I wish I could get all the stuff I see on the net, but that is just wishfull trhinking for me
Nobody here knows what rockwoll is, when I was telling someone abot the properties of it, they recommended me Oases cubes.
That stuff is aviable because florists use it.
But it sucks, almost no hydro store delivers outside the US.
I wish the postmandave and Mobay could help a nigga out.
I am in desperate need of some supplies.
I had ordered a 400w MH lamp a few years ago.
It cost $175 but they did not deliver outside the US so I had to hire a courier service.
At the end the whole thing cost me about $450 for a lamp that cost $175
If I could find a company that delivers direct would be perfect, so I don't pay 2X the shipping
But whatever....
