Hi everyone..I'm trying to find some good quality potting soil in Bangkok somewhere...Or somewhere in Thailand who could post to BKK.. Me and my wife are trying to grow some tomatoes etc on our balcony...So far we have bought 2 types of soil from lotus...One was in a white bag and was just bits of wood and stuff..and the other was called green ant soil I believe...again really bad quality...We are planting seeds and they grow for a week or 2 then just die...The soil seems to have bugs and all kinds of living things crawling around inside...I've read all the threads on here and I've searched on google thoroughly but I can't find any soil at all that looks half decent...I realize that I probably won't be able to get anything out here of the same quality as back home...But does anyone know anywhere that sells any half decent stuff that actually looks like soil..Something we can actually grow in...I've looked at posting some from the UK but postage would make it mega expensive..I would love a bag of John Innes right now lol....Thanks to anybody that replies... I wonder if anyone will open a real garden center out here and import soils from the west...I'm sure there would be alot of interest....

Hi..thanks for the reply...I'm going to check out jatujak next week...although I read on another forum that people had been there and just seen the same old stuff as what tesco sells...nothing good up there either apparently.. I have thought about making my own compost..I just thought that for the amount we need it would be alot easier to try and find some decent ready made stuff..if I cant I will have to look at making my own though...I really want to start growing some stuff on our balcony and make use of the sun here!!! thanks once again
