    Vermiculite at Home Depot

    I heard on here that some get their vermiculite at Home Depot. I went their and the guy did not know what I was talking about. What section is it in?

    It should be in the garden section. Good luck dealing with the incompetent reps that work at Home Depot. I get mine from a supplier that we buy materials for our landscape material yard from. I get a 4 Cu. Ft. bail for $16. You might want to try that route.

    Agreed, go somewhere other than home depot. Try local nurseries and landscaping supply. We buy 2.0 cubic foot bags for less than $10. Stuff at the chain home improvement stores tends to be juiced up with miracle grow and stuff too. I bought one tiny bag there a long time ago, not even close to worth it.
