TESTING PROCESS
Before it hits the shelf, or gets added to one of our mixes, we make sure our Organic Compost is fully up to scratch by testing it for:
- Nutrients
- Weed free
- Seed Germination
- Plant Growth
We take great care to bring you our finest products. Our products are created from green waste, so you might sometimes find small pieces of non-organic material in them.
