Seed & cutting compost with perlite

I read others comments regarding having to wet the entire block as it's difficult to split up. So that's what I did, in a wheelbarrow and I decanted it all into a large compost bag. Perfect! It goes a long way too. Only issue is that the transplant from pot to ground is a bit messy, the coir just falls away but that isn't too big a problem. Everything I would expect to germinate, has... Which is a huge improvement on John Innes seed compost where I lost 80% of seedlings.

Excellent for sowing seeds

I included this compost in my soil mixture, and both I and my plants approve. The quality appears to be great both before and after adding water. It also allows you to break off blocks easily so you can use what you need and store the rest for future use.The only issue I noticed, as other customers have mentioned, is the “20% perlite.” While there is some perlite visible, it does not appear to be 20%, and what is there is very fine. Additionally, when comparing it to the product images (specifically picture 2), my compost did not resemble the advertised perlite mix. I assume the perlite must either be extremely fine or not present in the quantity suggested.It would be helpful if the packaging included the perlite size or a clearer description, so customers know what to expect.

Excellent seedling compost. Great moisture retention. I can’t believe I got so much out of one tiny brick. I’ve planted heirloom tomatoes, Aubergines, courgettes, red peppers, dill and the ever hard to grow ( for me) coriander. Healthy seedlings are abundant already in mid April. Will definitely be buying this again.

Excellent

Nice and light

I found it easy to make up and seems a nice texture. It is meant to be 15l, but well hydrated and measured after 24 hours it only made up 10l. Also the perlite content seems to be much less than stated. Convenient for delivery, but expensive for what you get.

Just as advertised
