Reply To: What is compost?

Hi Mandy, your second comment helps me make more sense of your first, which I now see is a lot about adding potassium. Your second comment, – if what you were led to believe is true, there would be little fruit on Earth as the potassium would have ‘leached away’.
Fortunately compost and humus hold it bound until plants need it.
The miracle of compost. It makes our lives easier and our plants can draw what they need,, when they need it.
And we don’t need fertiliser.
