Using my compost soil

Last weekend I topped up my pots and replaced soil in others from my compost. It's beautiful rich, black soil. It also meant I have more room in my compost container to do some more composting

Here's some pictures of me adding it to the pots and digging it in.

Topped up

This one had lost a lot of soil, so the compost really built it up again.

  1. When we grow plants in pots, we have to be extremely nice to them, compost, additional soil, fertiliser, water, everything!!

  2. We sure do, and making our own fresh compost is a great way to do it.
