Hello everyone.

Is there a cheap alternative to coco fibre because i seem to extremely allergic to it. I can't use peat because it's all pesticide ridden around here and i'm sure my Emperor scorpion wont be too happy if i put that in lol. Also everything else that iv'e seen is really expensive.

Thanks all!!

Will have you tried using palm Peat?

We find it here in South Africa and its a peat made from palm trees. Works exactly the same as all other peats and comes in brick form, all we do is soak it in water and it expands. Best of all is it contains no additives or pesticides.
