I now have my replacement compost from Humax which is like what I was expecting from them nice fine compost ideal for seed trays and plug trays.

after I have used this up I will try using  Singletons multipurpose compost as I have has a fair few gardening friends say that they like this compost.

Glad that humax came through for you in the end.

Has anyone used Fertile Fibre (Coir peat free)? its very expensive but the most fine and successful I have found among peat free composts.

If you consider the number of failed trays and plugs I have had with other composts the Fertile Fibre is actually quite cost effective thoughy pricey initially.

I went with B and Q multipurpose for all my seeds this year after seeing the Which trial results summerised somewhere. Have not had any reason to regret it with near 100% germination and no problems like damping off. Only thing that didn't germinate well was cape gooseberries which I find notoriously difficult to get to germinate.
