Well my day has gone well and truly pear shaped! Will not be able to get to B&Q today will have to go on Monday instead :(

I have my parents over from Manchester to spend some time with us for Easter and see the grandchildren etc etc crikey talk about hard work :( Mental note to myself when I get old and retired I will not be a cantankerous old person and ruin every event such as Easter and Christmas with my none stop moaning and groaning!!!!!!!!!!!

I've used Verve for sprouts, broccoli, broad beans and tomatoes and have had 100% germination.  It is a bit lumpy and has some strange looking bits in it, ie fabric looking, but I sieve it first and it seems to do the job.

I have used verve compost and so far have 100% germination.

A few woody bits but nothing major. I have not sieved it just broke any lumps with my fingers.

I'm on my 3rd bag at the mo.  All seeds have been germinated and plants potted on, and it seems fine to me.

Just make sure it says Verve on the bag-B&Q are still trying to get rid of last years stock in some outlets(pink/mauve bags). This has more wood in it than a John Holmes film!
