First you haven't mentioned what you are up to with these ingredients, the goofer powder has got other things too, but still you haven't got the cemetery dirty, it may can have its effect unexpected!

If you dont know about Goofer dont make it because it can be used for killing or for other things it depends on your ingridients

And yes graceyard dirt is essential in goofer

Try this if you don't have graveyard dirt you may can take dirt some some area where someone was buried, I once took from my house backyard where my cat was buried after her death, it will work too, still be cautious and prefer the graveyard soil!

thank you + I do know what its for hence me trying to make it

I have seen variations of goofer dust without graveyard dirt. Though given its use, I assume it is a necessity. You could substitute soil where something died horribly. The main reason for it, is death energy/essence and or to petition the spirit of the being that died to help with your work. Does not need to be from a cemetary

Graveyard dirt is essential! Also there are other ingredients, black salt, ground sulfur, and others. With optional ingredients such as ground insects, powdered bones, etc. So yes it is essential to have graveyard dirt otherwise it's not a complete hoodoo trick.

I'd recommend not using or trying to make Goofer dust if you don't know much about it, as the effects from making it "incorrectly" could be undesired. Graveyard dirt is an essential ingredient not just to Goofer dust, but to many other powders when it comes to Hoodoo. Of course, as said above, you could use the dirt where something was buried but the term is "graveyard" dirt, this has to come from the Cemetary.
