My big show onion attempt this year has had mixed fortunes to say the least with a lot of the plants just slowly dying off one by one.
Decided to do a Nutrient and P.H test today and WOW check out the results.
This was tested on the same compost straight out of the bag.
Completely depleted Potash and Potassium.
A surplus of Nitrogen and a much too acidic P.H of 5.5
So no wonder they weren't growing too well.
I remember the bag being quite wet when I bought it, so the garden centre must have left it out in the rain and most of the nutrients must have been washed out of it.
