    You probably had to Pete. I think it's mainly peat (yes peat not Pete).

    Yes! used to use it some years ago, but then the PC brigade got to work and all the Garden centres etc, stopped stocking it.

    It would be nice to be able to buy pure peat once again.

    The best peat of all was that what was sold for spreading in chicken (hen) houses, it was nice and lumpy just right for digging into the soil!

    Cheers
