Can I store any unused shop bought compost from this year and use it next year?

Yes. Keep it well sealed and dry.

Great, thank you :-)

With the compost you inherited, you could have spread it out on a tarpaulin or similar and left the flies to fly away.

Thanks Rustylady, I realised later I could probably have used it, but I got a bit freaked out when I opened the bag! I got the council to come and pick it up

Indigo, you need to stop being so squeamish if you're going to be a gardener

**IndigoElectron** · 10-02-2014, 06:45 PM

I know :-)

**IndigoElectron** · 10-02-2014, 06:46 PM

I am getting better though, the worms don't bother me now :-)

Worms are lovely. Even my 2 year old granddaughter loves them.

Yes, I'm starting to think so too. I feel awful when I accidentally injure one while digging up weeds :-(

Your granddaughter is lovely by the way. My son is a similar age and I often take him out in the garden while I'm doing a bit of digging. Good to start them young, I think :-)
