For the last two years I have been having problems with bought compost. Whilst I make my own, I always have to buiy in more and especially for sowing seeds. After trying numerous brands from all our local outlets I have been appalled at the condition of the multi purpose products. These contain stick size pieces of wood, large hairy bits (not sure what these are) hard lumps which cannot be broken down, almost stone-like. This has to be sieved before sowing seeds, which is time consuming, and then half the bag is wasted through the dross that the products contain. Today, Eureka I have 4x 60ltr bags of Clove compost, which is excellent. Not a lump or hairy product in sight, fine, nice to handle - what a find. At £3.50 per bag, or 4 for £12 this is truly a find, I just hope that the retailer does not change the brand for something as inferior as those which I have been paying the same price for. Even the growbags which I bought a few weeks ago contained hard lumps?? I feel strongly that what we are buying here is all the council recycling rubbish product, which I really object to be paying for. As I make my own compost and am fussy about what I put in there, 3/4 of the "decent" garden rubbish goes onto my own compost, which produces good compost. The rest, which I would not dream of putting on my own compost heap goes into the council recycling bin, to include perennial weeds, seed heads and roots as well, including the dreaded bindweed, dandelions, wild garlic, celandine and food waste. I think it is time that the bags of compost state where these have been produced so that we have a choice of what we are buying. I have also had problems with the John Innes product and when I complained to the manufactures they said that the inspection line was at fault. I did get a refund, but have never bought the product again.
