hi guys could someone please tell me what type of grit or sand is ideal to mix into my compost veg patch for drainge.



i read somewhere that road grit is no good, nor is sharp builders sand

Thanks

Why do you need grit?

That looks like good multi purpose compost to me .. no need to add grit unless you have very heavy clay soil

I just use builders sand when I'm making my JI type compost!

I thought road grit was rock salt or is there another kind?
I'm with Two Sheds on this one - have you got a specific problem with the soil?

its mainly for drainge. the compost gets soaked when raining hard.
so sharp builders sand is ok then
