The law on compost means that we will have to get used to a differnt
type than we were used too, the providers, are having to drop their
peat content and make it up with alternatives, this year I have tried
four differnt brands, none of which I would have been happy with ten
years ago, Wickes, Westlands, Levingtons and Lidles


Please summarise your experiences!

Thank goodness for some decent homemade compost , mixed with a bought
in bag, add vermiuclite and chicken pelletts and that is then ok to
use


My problem is with seed compost, because I can't think of how to
sterilise the soil without acquiring another large device - and I have
no space left for storage.
