I'm using Myco Madness for my container plants.

I agree that shipping costs can be high for online stores but I find the store above has reasonable prices, especially if I order multiple items, and quick delivery.

I also bought 4 cubic foot bags of coarse vermiculite and perlite from a local garden store. They carried the brand shown below. I sifted the perlite using the pond basket below to remove the sand-size particles.

If you have a Lowes nearby you can use this for pine bark fines.
