Hey guys,
I'm now in a position to start filling my raised beds i've done some basic soil transfer and managed to ge about 120 litres in one of the bed so it's useable. My biggest problem is that i think i'll need approx 0.7 of a cubic meter (another 700 litres) to finish it off. Does anyone here live near Woking in surrey and have access to any? I know it's cheeky to beg but i'm reluctant to spend £60 on getting some delivered as i may not live here for that long......1 year maybe 2.
Should anyonw know of anywhere i can source cheap top soil or to be honest 700 litres of growing medium from then please please let me know.
Would growing in well rotted horse manure work i have an offer of lots of that but it's quite a drive.
Many thanks

) - or stick it on top and le nature do the rest? Of course there's then the horse manure to consider later on... I was thinking that i may just pop the horse manure on top for now and let the worms do the rest......I have to be honest though this garden doesn't seem to have too many worms....it's a horrible sandy loam which dries out very quickly. I've shovelled enough of it to find stones through it too....the carrots could be tricky.
