    You'll find that a lot of nurseries use their own home made compost, and just add some nutrients. 
    That's what my 'local' nursery does. They're on a very large scale, and they supply GCs and all sorts of retail outlets around the country. 
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Three 50Ltr bags £10 at a local garden centre or 3 tons of farmyard manure delivered by a local farmer for £30 If people are prepared to pay extortionate prices firms will sell the products

    Wickes Peat Free Multi-Purpose Compost - 50L 

    They've got a special on, 1 bag for £6, 4 bags for £20. 

    Total cost £60 for 600L

    Delivery should have been an extra £5, except we needed 10 pavers which bounced the total to over £100 for a free delivery.

    Strange though, if I added bags of cement I would have been charged £30 for the delivery. 
    Trying to be the person my dog thinks I am!
