I bought some cheapo Verve Multipurpose compost from B&Q at the weekend. I need to get some sweet peas sown in the next few weeks and it was 3 for a tenner so I got some.
Decided to use some for my carrot mixes for a couple of local shows I`m doing this year and it looked ok before I put it through a sieve. The first time through a 1/4" mesh produced a result "Time Team" would have been proud of. Twigs, lumps of wood, stones and what looked like a partially composted worm. It turns out that "Verve" is French for "full of shit"
After it went through a 1/32" mesh it was actually very nice stuff but I only ended up with 38 litres out of a 60 litre bag
