Tomatoes and sowing compost
Two things:
I set out looking for seed sowing compost at the sheds, and the best they did was a JI No. 1 which seems to be for cuttings, or a very small bag of compost for seeds but nothing in bulk. So I took the pragmatic decision to use GroBag compost. Most stuff so far seems to be germinating, but not the tomatoes. So is it necessary to have a particularly fine compost for tomato seeds, or am I just unlucky with my seeds - T&M Ildi and Mr. Fothergill's Principe Borghese? Is there anywhere (national chain) which sells seed compost? Or is JI No. 1 adequate? I can't remeber having these problems in the past, but it is a good few years since I grew tomatoes from seed.
