@TheMontyDon @MarcOxford True compost (home made) is comparable with all soil types and most growing media. We need to stop sterilizing everything and allow the soil biome to interact with the plant at all stages of growth.

In 1946 Maye Bruce wrote 'Give back life to the soil and abolish disease in plant, animal and man.'
In this year of International Plant Health, adding compost to our soils is the best thing we can do for plants, animals and the environment. It always has been and always will be.
