I used B&Q last year not pleased with it.  Seemed to have very little nutrient content.

I have been having the following thoughts for a long time what do you think?

Producers/Suppliers are reducing the fertiliser content in composts to cut costs unknown to us, because unlike fertilsers, they don't have to display the NPK or list the fertiliser content!

The other thing is; have the catered for the increased nitrogen that is needed to rot the various forms of cr*p they are putting in the mixes (recipes) or do the expect seedlings to compete for what ever amount of nitrogen there is in the mix?

The mind boggles :o ::)

Wikes looks far too coarse for seedlings. Maybe that's why they've had to put in extra/more abrasive fertilizer to counteract it. Don't think I'd buy either, I'm not rich but I've learnt to buy the best i can find or it all becomes a waste of time and money. :(
I like Westlands, and Levingtons usually deliver what it says [or doesn't say ] on the bag... ::)
