Diaso Earth

Diatomaceous earth is fossilized bodies of diatoms (primitive ocean creatures). The fine powder cuts and dries the waxy coating on an insect’s body; such as beetles, slugs, snails, fleas.


Known You Seeds is a Taiwanese seed distributor, and they sell it in a 1-kg bag. Each bag cost about $16. Address: No. 5, Lorong Bakar Batu, #05-03 Macpherson Industrial Complx, Singapore 348742. Tel : 67468213

You can get big pots at Daiso, IMM Level 3. Daiso is a Japanese departmental store that sells things from kitchen items to bathroom items, hardware tools, stationaries, tibits/drinks, gardening supplies and many more.

There are many nurseries that sell big pots. I buy my pots & soil at a nursery in Kovan (just next to Kovan MRT). The nursery name is 1-800 flowers P.L. (subsidary of FarEastFlora).Tel: 62852239

Come to World Farm... got all type and sizes of pots there... even got one big enough to bath inside. From Ang Mo Kio MRT, there is a straight bus ride of just about 30min that will bring you to WF. Or take Bus 17 from Yishun interchange. Alight after Khatib Camp. 5min walk to WF.

Walk along Bah Soon Pah Road (there is no shelter - do bring an umbrella) and you will reach World Farm somewhere in the middle.
