Spring in the step for growing media

 

Growing media sales dipped slightly during the first week of March but overall sales to date this year continue to be way ahead of the previous three years.

 

A couple of good weekends weather-wise and we will have a much better indication as to the level of overall growing activity likely to be going on this Spring.


Highlights of the week were:

  • Westland’s Erin Multipurpose 50 litres moves up one place to to top of the GTN Chart.
  • Country Care Horse Compost is the highest chart climber at No 22.
  • Evergreen Garden Care Miracle-Gro Ericaceous Peat Free Compost is the highest chart re-entry of the week.
