Can anyone recommend a good quality Multi Purpose Compost other
than J. Arthur Bowers. We've found this to be rather inferior &
not as good as it used to be.
I think that is a problem we are all having, always used
Levingtons but the last lot of that I bought had mouldy bits in
it, non-sterilised composted waste I suspect.
Used a "John Innes" this year and it's worked better although I
have mixed it with other stuff depending on what I'm potting up.

I find that B & Q Multi pourpous Compost, (with peat) is good
If I remember right, Which? published a review in January 2010 which
said that B&Q multipurpose (with peat) was the best and also the
cheapest of those that it tested.
I don't use multipurpose any more but in the past my own experience
was that Westland was generally the best.
Cheers

You are dead right - I subscribe to Which? and they reported lots of
tests and founbd B&Q multipurpose best for all sorts.

I've heard that Which? are running (or have run) another test on
compost this year, with twice as many brands/types as in the 2009/10
one. Is this true, do you know? Might be worth the £1 temp
subscription to the web site to get hold of a copy of the results.
