You have done very well.You have purchased a worthwhile product at a very low price.
I would never pay £9 99,but I would buy some for £2. 8)
Its an excellent medium for mixing in with other good soil just follow the advice on Muntys link,and you wont go far wrong. Meanwhile be happy because you done good. :lol:
Munty would be very happy if someone gave him a barrow full. :wink:
