        What weekly feeds are you going to add once the original nutrients have been used up ?
        The proof of the growing is in the eating.
        Leave Rotten Fruit.
        Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potasium - potash.
        Autant de têtes, autant d'avis!!!!!

            Why? - sorry but is this just for fun or are you trying to work out which compost mix to use in future?

            If you have plenty of access to the pony poo and want to use it in future, then I'd mix it in with the 3 types of mixes and use it again in future.

                I have Gartenpearle ready to plant out but I haven't got a hanging basket. Think I'll just use a hanging bucket and a wall pouch made from a cast iron gutter down comer!

                    Just general purpose compost with a 2 inch topdressing of soil conditioner ( composted waste)!
