Yes; its a great fertiliser (be sparing, it's powerful). I( just
scatter it on the surface of beds.

......................

Not Morrison's but yes we use them and have done for years. My orchids all
seem to appreciate a few pellets each and the citrus get a good dose. Use it
on the allotment for the onions etc. even crushed it up for the grass.
The only drawback is that once wet it smells for a few days and I do wonder
if it's the cause of foxes digging on the allotment.

Can't say I have.

Couldn't you just shred Hansard and use that?

I emphasise the "use sparingly".
You can kill things, especially pot plants, by adding too much, as I
found to my cost the first year I used it.

Far too expensive. Plenty of other cheaper alternatives.

Don't over do it Dave, we used to use the clearings from a local poultry
operation but it caused also sorts of mineral imbalances because we used so
much, bit like gunpowder really, good fun for fireworks use to much and it
destroys things
