Good value
I bought this product in an end of season sale and it was very good value for money. The product label does not say it is peat free so when this batch has gone it may not be available again.

easy to use and the plants loved it lol
easy to use straight from the bag, the plants don't half respond to it after a couple of days, an unbelievable transformation

Erica cross Compost
Compost came in good condition. Was ready to use and did not require a lot of moistening.

Not what I want! I specified peat-free
I wanted PEAT_FREE ericaceous compost, and your site came up with a lot of composts that are NOT peat free. Why are you still selling this? Disappointing.

Good quality
I experimented last year with this and three other more expensive composts and much to my surprise this one came out tops on root growth and general plant health compared to the others. As a general rule I will tend to add some extra nutrients such as manure and chicken pellets and bone meal to my compost especially when planting out garden pots or wall containers but again this compost I have found to be more than adequate and is a good price too.

Contains Peat
Please consider a B&Q peat-free alternative to this product. Our UK peatlands are vital for carbon capture and act as our very own rainforest, as well as a haven for wildlife. Thank you
