Reviews
Worst compost I ever used
Just Say No - 4 months ago
I brought this product as it was the only one available at my local store during the covid gardening madness. Now that I've had a chance of using it, I'm not surprised. It's so fibrous that it's more like vintage furniture stuffing than compost, and contains actual rubbish - bits of string, burnt sticks, you name it. Not only it doesn't hold moisture, but it actively prevents moisture from percolating, so that water is overflowing over the top of the pot while the compost a mere centimetre below is bone-dry - and no, I didn't compact it too much. Maybe the issue was caused by poor storage in store, and the product was allowed to dry to the point that it cannot be "revived". All I know is that I had hundreds of seedlings I'd spent weeks growing on from seed, I potted them on in this rubbish, and they are all dead now. I would have been better off digging a hole in the garden and using soil instead.
All round good product
