Mushroom compost

Four smallish bags for $12 at Flower Power. I just built a small no-dig
garden out of the contents, with wet newspaper underneath and sugar cane
mulch
on top. Planning to plant pansies and sweet peas in it.
The compost looks pretty much uniform and like large wet tea leaves. I
don't
think it's "hot" -- would it be OK to plant the pansies straight away?

Yep but I would put some "potting mix" or soil in with it as it can get hot,
say about 1 to 1 ratio.
I use a lot of Mushroom compost and its great but it does decompose
relatively quickly.
