Grow Your Own / Re: Compost Review 2024
« Last post by Nobbie on Today at 12:41 »
Just picked up four 75L bags of Clover peat based compost for £28. Not repeating my mistake of using the Lidl peat free this year which was awful stuff, full of rubbish, dirty and many plants just didn’t grow in it and had to be repotted. Everything is more than happy with this stuff. Might have to stockpile some for future years until the peat free stuff becomes reliable.

Usually keeping thing damp puts them off, but I can’t imagine anywhere being dry this spring.

I’ve not even sown mine yet as the soil is too wet, hopefully this week. How is everyone else doing?

 One was a couple of inches tall before I sliced it with the hoe :(, tasted good though. Hoping the warmer weather this week should have it producing strongly by weeks end. You’d hope so anyway in the first week of May.

Chicken and mushroom risotto with baby pots from Waitawhile. It's actually very good.

Sunny here too but a quite blustery wind so not that warm.
