Default What to do with soil from potatoes

It's not that difficult, get some slow release fertilizer granules and
chuck some in and mix it up or a few handfuls of pelletted chicken
manure.


I have a some of this......Never saw a use for it so never used it!

I wouldn't want to use this for something going to be in the point for a
few years but for annuals, hanging baskets etc. it's be fine - and
cheaper than buying new.


Not thought about doing any baskets...
I have 2 that the last tenant left behind....They are just the wire frame
with the thick matting to hold it together....
I may have a go and see what I can do!

Or use it as a mulch to improve a small patch of soil elsewhere.

I'll do this then....

And then at the end of the season you can still use it for this :-)
