I haven't bought any this year as I already had some from a couple of years ago and didn't use much last year as I moved allotment sites.   It is very good for all uses - I have grown seeds in it, rooted cuttings, potted plants on and have never had any problems.   At our local Asda, they seem to sell a lot of it and when I worked there, I cannot recall anyone complaining about it.

All composts depend on the user, some years ago I saw a lady trying to load some large bags of compost into her car, I knew this lady and helped with the load. She told me her husband  always used this particular compost so I bought some, it  was to me absolutely useless but the way her husband treated it, it was ok. I do have some experience having been a pro gardener over 60 years.
