What about compost from the two gro-bags I used for my tomatoes this year, where the toms got blight?

My instinct is not to use this soil again.
Veg? That's chips, innit?

Quote from: "Fat Hen"
Just clearing up most of toms finnished, but what do you do with spent compost from pots & growbags?  I only have small garden no flower beds to chuck it on.  Most of my plants are grown in pots & containers.


If it's used but otherwise healthy, I dig it in. if it's been eg blighted, it goes into the (warm) compost heap. If I was just growing in bags and pots, I'd xfer the spent compost to an empty pot and "unspend" it with fertilizer
