B&Q Online

Is this the right stuff and what is it? Also is it right to mix it with play sand?

Hi,


Any brand of top soil is ok, the reason it must be top soil is that it sterilised and I
Use 60 % top soil and add 40 % play sand, make sure you get children play sand
This is safer to use and you buy this in any DIY store!!



Hope that helps!!

hi..when i went to B+Q i couldnt find what i wanted...so i asked for organic compost that has no chemical or anything added what so ever they told me to go to the garden centre because most of theirs had things done to them and the steralized ones still had been treated...it really confused me at first but they even said themselves to try the local garden centre.....

thanks alot

Will take a trip to B&Q and go get both with some plant pots. Are plant pots ok for hideaways(halved)?

yeah they're great i use them for mine, tho deemo much prefers shoving them outta the way
