Growing media sales in October dropped by 4% on 2020 levels but were 46% higher than the same month in 2019.
If we hadn’t had the lull caused by the fuel ‘crisis’ it may have even been up. Compared to all pre-pandemic years there is a lot more autumn gardening going on!
Highlights of the week were:
Westland John Innes No 3 30 litres is the biggest mover in the GTN Top 10 this week, moving up 5 places to No 6.
Westland Jack's Magic All Purpose Compost 50 litres moves up 12 places to No 13. Is this the result of ‘panic’ buying as Jack’s Magic moves to a 50% peat mix for 2022?
Westland Container & Basket Planting Mix 25 litres is a new entry at No 37.
