    I'm planning to dress some sand into the veg plot, and thought about using the John Innes for the pots and tubs I'll be planting out into once the seedlings are ready fir going out. Does this sound like a reasonable idea to everyone? ...

      Just to add to all the helpful comments this is the feedback we had on our seed compost from Alys Fowler:
      "I'm in love with the seed compost. It's a very fine mix, light and with lots of air, so ideal for germination of trickier stuff. I found I got very strong, steady growth in the seedlings and that they transplanted exceptionally well. I am starting to trial the GroChar soil improver in my own homemade potting compost, so far, so good. It's a very economical way if you make your own mixes, to benefit from all the good stuff biochar brings to the soil."

      Carbon Gold is the world’s leading biochar company with a range of Soil Association approved GroChar products - peat-free composts, soil improver and fertiliser - which all contain biochar, seaweed, wormcasts and mycorrhizal fungi.

      Carbon Gold's aim is to support and promote sustainable food production and improved food security through biochar products and related projects. Biochar naturally improves soil structure, enhances soil fertility and boosts soil health whilst sequestering atmospheric carbon dioxide for hundreds of years.

      Carbon Gold have also developed a range of kilns for low cost biochar production. www.carbongold.com
