i see lidle have the 1.49 seed compost again...dont buy it its cr*p
nowt germinates or is it me?
I bought some of their compost in the Spring, and it was the worst that I have ever had. It was largely made up of wood chips that had not decayed. Horrible consistency that would not hold water, and it did not change colour when it had dried out.
thanks for the tip folks

lidl stainless steel spades and forks @£7.99 are a lbargin...long handle =less bending
what this got to do with compost ....i think ive lost the plot....must be the grafenwalden lager
Jim,
You'll find out when they bend.
Stainless steel is soft & pretty useless for hard work.
Hence £7.99.
I gave up on seed composts years ago. A rough mix of 50/50 multipurpose and vermiculite give a wonderful seed germination/cutting result.

Don't waste your money on their juicer either. 5minutes use from new and it goes bang.
Good job really my apples must not have been ripe. The juice put a road right through me.
Too much information ;D
The images are disturbing ;D
I have just realised what went wrong with the juicer. I have just read the trouble shooter page.

And I thought I had done something wrong.
Oh no.......wish this post had been three weeks earlier. I bought eight bags of the stuff. I have already planted tulip and hyacinth bulbs in pots in the stuff. The rest I have sieved to get the lumps out and mixed 50/50 with 5 year old rotted horse manure for growing next years seedlings.
Are my bulbs doomed to failure if I leave them in it or can I do anything to it to improve it, or better to re-pot them in a better compost?
Robbo.
Tulips etc get a lot of their nourishment from their bulbs, so I cannot see them suffering this year. I would put a bit of feed in though, to help them the year after. The compost is really just a medium for them to stand up in. Do you remember those silly glass things that just held a bulb with just water in the bottom.
