Wrong compost... but can I mix it?
« on: May 12, 2013, 11:47 »
Hi All
Looks like I have bought Ericaceous compost for my onions and spuds this year.
Im not sure its too acidic? If it is can I mix it with half MPC and it will be ok??

Thanks for any info, the spuds and onions seem to be doing really well though!!!

Mix it in - Spuds grow best on soil that is a bit acidic - at least they won't be scabby  :lol:
