Rush to buy growing media
 
If this week’s sales increase is an indicator of gardening desire then we could be in for a bumper year. With only one day when the snow had cleared, the sudden rush to buy growing media was unexpected.

Increased sales came across all types of growing media – multipurpose, seed composts, Farm Manure and Bark.

Highest new entry in the GTN Growing Media chart is the 10-litre pack of Westland Go-Sure Seed and Cutting Compost, following the debut of the 30-litre pack last week. Scotts Miracle-Gro All Purpose Compost 20 litres is the highest re-entry at No 16.

Next week’s charts, when we’ve had warmer weather and some sunshine, will really start to indicate how eager the great British public are to get gardening this year.
