Veg in containers

Hi Digga - I originally bought compost and soil enhancer. Then added some home made compost. Then each year I just added loads of fresh horse manure, chicken pellets and a bit of growmore. Also added a bit of home made compost every few years. everything grew really well.

Well this year i want to grow organically or as best as i can and was going to use compost but was a bit dubious about where or what the cheaper compost was made from.

Regards soil enhancer i presume you mean that rockdust stuff?

One other thing about containers could you grow the same crop in the same container year after year or would you need to rest with other crops the next year as you do with normal soil in vegetable plots?

Digga I never really rotated mine... I did mainly onions and squashes.. At the end of the season I would put all the compost in a few wheelie bins etc. and bring it out again in spring. So it I used the same compost all the time.. Right or Wrong?? dunno..

The enhancer was some bags of compost like stuff - it was probably farmyard manure or similar - had loads of bark chippings in it as well.

Only if you are using a wheelie bin sort of depth.. normal pots will be fine.

Oh dear... you could always swap her!!
