always best to sift – sieve compost whether store-bought or home-made
with store bought in my experience i have found extra-special gifts that are not mentioned on the packaging or literature
special gifts can be of great value such as
plastic
stones
gnat and other insect eggs
glass
metal nails and screws and staples [albeit rusty]
metal hinges [albeit rusty]

i have no garden where i live and would love to have a garden at the very least
that said i would prefer a property out in the sticks
i have however just last week took on an allotment plot which i can grow my own food
for those who have not heard of an allotment
quote “Allotment Info. An allotment is an area of land, leased either from a private or local authority landlord, for the use of growing fruit and vegetables. In some cases this land will also be used for the growing of ornamental plants, and the keeping of hens, rabbits and bees. An allotment is traditionally measured in rods (perches or poles)” see https://www.nsalg.org.uk/allotment-info/
what is an area of a perch
quote “The terms pole, perch, rod and rood have been used as units of area, and perch is also used as a unit of volume. As a unit of area, a square perch (the perch being standardized to equal 161⁄2 feet, or 51⁄2 yards) is equal to a square rod, 301⁄4 square yards (25.29 square metres) or 1⁄160 acre.”
what is an area of a pole
quote “The rod, perch, or pole (sometimes also lug) is a surveyor’s tool<sup>[1]</sup> and unit of length of various historical definitions, often between approximately 3 and 8 meters (9 ft 10 in and 26 ft 2 in). In modern US customary units it is defined as 16+1⁄2 US survey feet, equal to exactly 1⁄320 of a mile, or a quarter of a surveyor’s chain (5+1⁄2 yards), and is exactly 5.0292 meters. The rod is useful as a unit of length because integer multiples of it can form one acre of square measure (area). The ‘perfect acre'<sup>[2]</sup> is a rectangular area of 43,560 square feet, bounded by sides 660 feet (a furlong) long and 66 feet wide (220 yards by 22 yards) or, equivalently, 40 rods and 4 rods. An acre is therefore 160 square rods or 10 square chains.” see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_(unit)

i now have a 12v [UPS] battery on trickle charge and that will soon be put to good use
i have found that [NOCO] make an affordable 6v 12v combination chargers that include maintainers and delsufator by auto detect for less than £40.00 or USD $48.08 with glowing reviews https://www.halfords.com/motoring/battery-maintenance/battery-chargers/noco-genius1-1-amp-battery-charger-230262.html they also do other models that cost a bit more
not looked into other brands as yet but may be worth looking into

MemberFebruary 21, 2023 at 6:24 pm in reply to: wind-proofing polytunnel to prevent it coming a air ballonthankfully i have all the seeds i need as stocked up a couple of years ago when i was also gifted lots of packets
as for purchasing seed in the UK in twenty-twenty-three [2023] i have no ideas what the status is
