@@edita_uk676 They faired okay but I think I said in one of my recent videos that I went over to putting more drainage material in the mix like perlite as the compost seems to appear to be dry but was actually wet at the bottom of the pot. This seems to be an issue for most growers but more drainage does help greatly. However, things have changed a bit as the legislation that was to ban its retail sale and eventual professional sale never got heard in parliament and with a new government they’ve probably got higher priorities. So for the time being there is still a choice and I am aware of many growers that are going back to peat based.
Great video, as always, thank you David 👍🌸🌸🌸
I always enjoy your videos!
Always a pleasure to watch your videos and I always pick up a tidbit of knowledge.
Thank you for the video ❤

@@thepagsociety Thank you, David, it's good to know- I wasn't aware of the latest developments in legislation. 👍
only compost? no perlite or any other draining materials?
@@tejasnarayanappa3736 I think I say my normal compost which includes a third perlite and sand.
