Another week of gains for growing media
 

As expected growing media sales dropped week on week as we move into July, but it is another week with a year on year increase for the sector.  That makes it 17 out of 27 weeks this year when growing media sales have beaten last year.  Whereas last weeks increases were dominated by small bags, this week we are back to big bags of multipurpose and specialist ericaceous composts with significant increases.

Other main highlights were:

  • Westland Gro-Sure Ericaceous Compost & 4 Month Feed (50 litres) was the highest re-entry at No 5.
  • Scotts Levington John Innes No3 (25 litres) was the highest climber, moving up 28 places to No 6.
  • Scotts Levington Multipurpose + John Innes (56 litres) stayed on top of the chart.
