Got a big bag (50L) of ericaceous compost, and also a smaller bag
(20L) of multipurpose compost. They both need using up. Is it OK to
mix these two bags,


I would mix and use them

So would I: I mix all sorts of stuff, using thoughtful guesswork and
smell. But I'd get some lime into it, particularly if they're last
year's.
