You can actually get a lot of your stuff at Walmaort or target... Dont forgot home Depot! I use 25% Aerated Miracle Grow soil, 25% perlite, 25% vermiculite, 25% shultz soil conditioner. I then add 1/8 str neuts to supplement for the lack of nutes in the small amount of soil in the mix. I get excellent drainage and excellent O2 retention while also getting good moisture retention. You should be able to find everything you need at a Home Depot, Walmoart or Target..

If you find out where the farmers shop you've found the gold at the end of the rainbow. I went for Dolomite lime, blood meal, bone meal, pro mix. Took 3 trips to bring the shit inside but it cost less than &20 (CAN). The downside is that everything is BIG. The dolomite I needed a cup of but paid $6 for a 50lb bag. Whaddya gonna do? Hydro store would of charged me 8$ for a cup full.  Again, this was a feed and seed distributor. They are around. Good luck.
