Thinking of topping up my garden veg bed with some topsoil /and/or
mushroom compost.
Not sure what to get and what % - whether I get half and half or 1/3
2/3 - or to just get topsoil.

Price is 35 quid per bag of each (or 25 loose but OH doesn't want a
mountain in front of his garage)

Any suggestions (I know it's probably entirely wrong time of year but
it's something I think needs doing sooner or later)

All suggestions welcome...

I would go for the spent mushroom compost - it should improve the texture
and general usability of almost any type of soil.
You don't say which type of soil you have, but if it is light then it will
swallow up huge amounts of spent mushroom compost, manure etc.

I would certainly go at least 50/50 if you are intending to add topsoil.

You would, of course, have to dig it in at least partially.
Topsoil would just drop on top - but then you might want to add stuff to
your topsoil.
