Growing media sales still ahead of the game
 
Growing media sales are up on both 2015 (+33.7%) and 2014 (+36.6%) levels, and 22.8% higher than the previous week as gardeners start to get busy outside.

This week’s Growing Media star performers include:
  • Scotts Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Compost (56 litres) is the highest climber, moving up 25 places to No 20.
  • Westland Gro-Sure All Purpose Compost (50 litres) is the highest re-entry at No 24.
  • Scotts Levington Multipurpose + John Innes (56 litres) retains the top spot for another week.
