Compost
Previous years I had bought B&Q compost - and this choice was reinforced by Which?'s best buy result. This year they have changed the compost - and it is appalling. The bag I bought was full of bits of wood - some bits of polythene and also white mould on some of the wood. I have just tried an Aldi bag - and it is much the same (but cheaper). It even had a section of an old green plastic plant tie in it. There was an awful lot of unrotted small wood chippings in it. I guess this all comes about by local authorities making "compost" from the recyclable rubbish. I know that my own does; I have never bought any directly from them as I was just not happy at not knowing what was in it. What if someone had put some old plant material which had been treated with weed-killer in their recyclable refuse? Moan over. What do other people use for general purpose compost (growing tomatoes in) and also compost for seeds and seedlings? |
