Following our own trials, we made Carbon Compost available to the members of the Marypole Allotment Association, Exeter. They also conducted trials, the results of which we equally successful and encouraging. Feedback and photos below.

We would welcome your feedback (positive or negative) and photos. Please email to admin@carboncompost.co.uk

The plant with the carbon compost is on the right. With the pumpkins I’ve included the hand fork to give an idea of scale. Each plant also had slow release fertiliser at the appropriate time (measured!), and when watering, the plant with the carbon compost was given the same amount as the one without. The plants in pots were placed side by side, to try and ensure growing conditions were as identical as possible. I was pleased with how all the plants turned out, as I think they all did well. My initial reactions are are that the carbon compost tends to grow things bigger, (especially rhubarb, and to a certain extent all the others as well) and also appears to make the colours brighter in some cases (daisies and pumpkin).- Jenny B
