Default Commercial potting compost

I use quite a lot as I have many plant pots and grow from seed. I pay
about £12 for three large bags, all the garden centres in the area seem
to be much the same price. However lately I have found there are a lot
of bits of wood in the compost, which is a nuisance when potting on. I
know that I could sieve it but I am wondering if there are better
composts out there at about the same price. Would the team please advice?



You don't say how much you use in a season.
Sounds as if you are using Peat free. I have yet to find one that was
good for anything other than as a mulch.
