Growing Media sales pick up as winter veg gets planted out
Growing media sales picked up again last week in line with an increase in plant sales, particularly winter veg plants. That’s good news because it shows people do want to get on and garden, it was just the good old weather extremes and holidays getting in the way. With good weather forecast for September and October there is every chance growing media sales and gardening activity could still get back to parity with last year, even afte all those weeks of cold, snow and rain!
Westland Jack's Magic All Purpose Compost, 40 litres, a favourite with keen gardeners climbed 15 places too No 14 with sales doubling week on week.
Evergreen Garden Care’s Levington Multipurpose + John Innes, 56 litres, remains the No 1 Bestselling line in the GTN chart.
The boom in houseplants has worked its way through to growing media sales; Growth Technology’s Cactus Focus Compost, 8 litres, is the highest new entry at No 36.
