Guys today I visited Empress market and I am really sad that there was only one shop related to gardening and it had none of the good stuff. No perlite, no vermiculite, no organic compost etc.

How come there is only one shop ?

BTW, just use a mixture of Baalu mitti and cow manure in 2:1 ratio and you are done with potting mix of your vegges... no need of adding coir, vermiculite or perlite...

I see. Well can you please pin point where exactly in Empress market these shops are ?? I spent like an hour roaming around inside empress market but was only able to find one tiny seed shop.

I am looking for that special stuff (perlite etc) because I have ordered some seeds online and they require these items.
