can i find this at a farmer/grain elevator type place?



Any garden center - even the chains - should have it - it's a
"basic
basic" gardening product.


i drew a big blank last time i looked around for
various chemicals/amendments. all the chains
have topsoil, garden soil, mulch, fertilizer, weed
killers, and insecticides up the wazoo. simple
chemicals seem to be scarce... i'm not much of
a shopper... i will practice some more tomorrow.

thanks,
