Hi

I don't know if it's available locally there, but I have shipped a few tubs
to Europe.


Carepackage

Check out the formulas for the two fertilizers
and you might find one mighty close among those produced in Europe.


I will try to find the real stuff, otherwise i will
look for a similar ...

Holy Crap! He sells a 25# bag for - by today's exchange rate - $215.25.

That's $100 more than it would be coming from me, including Air parcel Post
shipping!

I have GOT to jack up my prices!

This guy imports MSU to Sweden. Don't know if he ships to Germany though,
but he might have more info for you:

Mail (if you germans aren't as good as deciphering swedish, as us swedes
are
deciphering german =D )



Good luck! Am on year two of experiments with MSU myself, and it is

Ah, but he has people willing to pay that much... Although when you
think about it, I've seen one pound containers of fertilizer sell in
excess of $5.00. This guy is getting 4+/pound.

There are advantages to buying in bulk. Unless you are buying from
this guy... *grin*

1) There is always room for one more orchid
2) There is always room for two more orchids

3) When one has insufficient credit to obtain more
orchids, obtain more credit

Scratch that. Bad math skills are why I went into biology. That is
more like $8.00 a pound.
