hi organic reference doesnt necessaserily mean that the pellets have come from free range chickens all forms of chickenmanure is used battery deeplitter etc, organic refers to the feed used no insecticides pesticides hormones and the like jezza

organic refers to the feed used no insecticides pesticides hormones and the like jezza

But that's the rub, Jezza. The "brand" organic, as stipulated by the soil association in this country, no longer means chemical/pesticide free, and hasn't for a long time. very few people understand that. Look up the current soil association definition, and all will be revealed.

Went to the local merchants today  to buy 2 x  25 kg bags of Special Potato fertilizer as I have done so in the past, but they would not sell me any as I did not have a "certificate".

They explained that being high nitrogen content it could be used by terrorist to make bombs and they were forbidden by the government to sell me any!

After a bit of chit chat were I explained I only wanted it for potatoes in my allotment they relented and sold me the 2 bags!

Took my car registration no and my name and address but I was happy as it cost £17.99 per bag!

They had 10kg tubs of Westland Organic Poultry manure  pellets for only £10 on  special offer in the middle of the floor!

Cheers!
