FRESH MUSHROOM COMPOST £3 per bag
Our Mushroom Compost is fresh and direct from the suppliers. We do not sell any compost that does not meet our standards. Our mushroom compost comes directly from mushroom farms. Formed from composted agricultural straw and rotted manure blend before being used as a mushroom growing medium, it is sought after by horticulturalists because of its ability to replenish soils economically and quickly. As mushroom compost is alkaline in nature you should avoid using mushroom compost around ericaceous (acid-loving) plants. Mushroom compost is excellent on the vegetable garden, as vegetable crops usually grow best when the soil is not acid and alkaline brassicas (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kohlrabi) are less likely to be infected by clubroot disease.A 50mm layer should be spread over the area to be treated, then forked or rotavated in. A 75mm layer could be considered with very poor soils." Read More
