                • Today I am going to repot some seedlings into some compost supplemented with this stuff, and sow some seeds the same way. Alongside my usual method. And see the difference.

                    • 12 men/women should do this! I have sprinkled half of my broad beans with this and half not in the poly. Half of my garlic and half not. My healthy pepper seedlings from yesterday did not have it, however I have potted on my celeriac seedlings in a 10:1 mix. I hope they overwinter well.

                        Yes - I'd like not to be the only person who does trials on here!

                        Last trial I did I got grief so I decided not to share any more - I'm only doing this as it's you...

                            • I'll join in. I already have some plants with and some without, but haven't marked them up as such. So when I do beans/squashes/cucs etc I'll do it properly
