Quote from: Fleecewife on January 06, 2012, 11:21:48 amWhat do you all use as compost for your early sowings? Do you use last years? Or do you buy new? How can you tell if stuff in the shops is new or last years, as there's no sell-by date? Do you have any problems with early sowings because of poor quality compost?we use last years (if any left) or buy from shop and not worry if not this year.we have good/ bad depending on heat of soil usually. we make sure its brought inside for a few days in the polytunnel to warm nicelyjust about to sow tomatoes (for indoors) and some flowers to sell in the springBusy time starts now Mx
