I have a good supply of well rotted compost and leaf mould. what is
the
best formulae for potting compost, and it is desirable to add any
fertilisers?

I have a blue book in which I note "useful things", you know, the sort
of
things you knew you read somewhere and now need to know.
Somewhere in there is how to replicate various types of John Innes
compost,
would you like me to get the blue book out and post the recipe?

There are websites with all the necessary information. Maybe easier to
use
one
than to type your note book? :-)

That would be "no" then.
Ah well.
Just wait until you want something from my blue book...
Maybe only I know it ;-)

Isn't that what people usedd to call a 'commonplace book'? I think it was
usually to write down snips of poetry and such things but why not compost
recipes, considering the beautiful results they produce! ;-)

All sorts of things are in my blue book, old recipes, tips about chickens,
gardening and more. Not everything is on the internet.
