| Crop Specific Composts
Primula and Pansy compost is available from stock, all others to special order, minimum order 1 pallet.
These composts are generally of lower nutrient content.
This provides benefits in both early establishment and
a higher degree of plant control with liquid feeding.
Early liquid feeding is essential to maintain these
benefits.
