A problem with such compost can be weed seeds and sometimes diseases. It
depends on how well all of the source matter has been composted. I've
bought cheap bags of such compost and got more plants coming up than I
bargained for! Also it tends to go very mouldy in the bag - don't know
if this is due to the compost being too moist or incomplete composting
process though. Maybe not a good idea to use for seeds or delicate
seedlings.
I tend to use the cheap compost mixed with garden soil (mole hills) to
produce a mix that is ideal for potting on larger plants or growing
tomatoes in.
