On Friday we travelled the distance up to Cumbria to visit L&P Peat, who mine Solway Moss for Humax compost, used for mushroom growing. Solway Moss is a site the government wants to submit for Special Area of Conservation status to Europe, however L&P Peat have threatened to take the government to judicial review if they do, preventing any of the peat sites being submitted.
I have always been warned to get the best potting compost i can when starting off trays no short cuts and no short measures as you only get a chance to grow a seed once :-).
What does 1 cubic meter equate to in litres ?
Marymary Are you sure you didn`t buy soil improver by mistake?. I asked my son(who is a landscape gardener) to get me compost and he got improver instead the bags looked the same.I mixed it in with compost60/40 for tom pots and it seems to be o.k, all growing away.
