FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Does your compost contain pests or fungus?

Fungus gnats are a common frustration with many mass-market composts, but we take plant health seriously. Our compost is professionally screened and stored in a clean environment to ensure it is free from infestations. By choosing our specialised mix, you are making the correct decision to keep your home pest-free while providing your plants with a clean, healthy start.

How will your compost make my vegetables thrive?

Standard composts often struggle to support the heavy-cropping needs of a productive vegetable patch. Our Jamieson Brothers Vegetable Planting Compost is enriched with added John Innes to provide a robust, loam-based structure that improves water retention and nutrient stability. This professional-grade mix is specifically designed to promote healthy root development and vigorous growth, ensuring your homegrown vegetables receive the essential minerals they need for a bountiful and flavorful harvest.

Does your compost contain large bits of bark (garden waste) or random seeds?

A common complaint with cheaper alternatives is finding "green waste" or unwanted seeds in the bag. Our Vegetable Planting Compost is a refined, high-quality medium that is strictly monitored for purity.

You can be confident that you are receiving a consistent, professional-grade product that contains only the nutrients and structure your houseplants need, with no unwanted surprises or contaminants.

What's the structure & consistency of your compost?

Inferior composts can often arrive bone dry or as a fine dust that is difficult to water. Because our mix contains John Innes, it has a much better physical "body" and weight. This helps it retain the correct amount of moisture without becoming waterlogged or dusty. It is easy to handle and provides the perfect air-to-water balance that is essential for the delicate roots of indoor varieties.

Why is this specialised mix a better investment than a cheaper compost?

Buying a “bargain” compost often leads to the hidden costs of purchasing extra fertilisers, improving poor soil structure or accepting a disappointing harvest. Our Vegetable Planting Compost is an all-in-one professional solution. Its supportive blend helps provide the moisture, structure and root conditions required by fast-growing and productive vegetable plants.

It is the most reliable choice for growing vegetables in raised beds, containers, borders and vegetable plots.
