    Default Compost help

    I have only ever grown using normal peat compost bought from the shops.
    I now have a composter in the garden,can I just use the stuff from my composter with perlite?
    And if I can would it be ok to still use bio biz grow and bio biz bloom with it

    If its well rotted/composted it should be fine to use,even better if you've got worms breaking it down into wormcasts.
    Why not try a few different mixtures on a few plants to see what works best,add 25% perlite to any compost mix you use and there's plenty of organic fertilizers you can add to it like fish,blood and bone meal,seabird/bat guano's .

    Thanks for the reply guys
    It is a good idea to use bought stuff too, I will do that.
    As I usually start a season with 10 seeds going,I will definatley try a few different mixes.
    There is some chickens in the field behind my house, better follow them for the s**t

    stick a bit of well rotted horse manure into the mix if you can get some. ive got 5 plants in manure and 4 in normal soil/ compost. the ones in the manure are bigger and smellier than the ones in the soil. they love the stuff
