This year is different - I do have weeds. The only difference I can see
is that this year I'm using a well-known name instead of something from
a DIY shed.
Should I expect multipurpose compost to be sterile? Was I just lucky in
the past?

I bought Miracle gro multi purpose compost a couple of weeks back and it's full of bits of paper and generally in a very poor state.
I bought the same product last year and it was great, worked a treat.
This batch seems to be compacted and full of 'rubbish'.
I'm gonna persavere with it hopefully not to the detrement of my young plants.
