Use your own compost or the stuff from the recycle centre. (£2/big bag
round our way.)
Put it through the riddle. Much cheaper all round

..Hi Harry, good advice, and I do use compost from oue local recycling
centre, and riddling gets rid of excessive bits of stick.. BTW it's free !!

Not the point of my post really, but thanks anyway
