BEST SUPPLIER OF COMPOST 2018

Thank you Scrunge for the tip..... to get it delivered would be a blessing - even if it costs an extra penny. At the moment I have a stash of ''peat plus'' that I had delivered for mulching purposes (a full pallet) This stuff smells a bit farmyard manure ish, but mixed with good topsoil it makes a good medium.
I got this from a dealer on ebay from Norfolk.

 

Not heard of Bunnings before , I think Mrs H would have me certified if I drove to Rochdale for compost

Yes I suppose Homebase new Aussie owners think Christmas is peak BBQ season !

 

Anybody used 'Manor Farm' (Durstons) compost? http://www.durstongardenproducts.co.uk/composts

A farm shop we use (Hunters Farm, near Bletchley MK17 9DN) sell 240L for £12, 5p/L

 

Bit to far for us to go Scrungee as it was cost us more in fuel than what we would save

 

Burnings are in MK St Albans & Hemel Hempstead.

I remember when Office World became Staples. On my travels I saw a really nice office world branded executive chair for half price. I was miffed when I discovered my local branch didn’t have any.

Our Homebase is as we speak changing to Bunnings.
Almost next door is a brand new Wicks soon to open..........Good competition.
Looking forward to both.

 

I have just started using our Wickes store more and more . The prices are competitive with Screwfix and you don't have to walk 2 miles like the B and Q mega store.
I have decided on my MPCs for this year, at last . I'll use the Gro-Sure seed compost to start the seeds. For pricking out into cells and 3" pots I'll use the recommended Jack's Magic . For the bulk containers and pots in May it will be Wickes MPC. Now don't try to change my mind !

 

As if....

 

Now , I never new Staples sold Multi purpose Compost

 

Just come back from Longwell Green, Bristol Homebase and they've got 30% off all compost.

Bought Jacks Magic (60L) for £4.88.
John Innes No3 (30L) for £3.49.

Sad that they've got rid of the plant section.
