Sounds like they might need an honest online review I'm really enjoying the compost from last year's straw bales. Especially the not having to purchase compost or potting soil this year thing. I think I'll always grow in them. I did buy 1 bag of compressed Pro-mix from Wal-Mart to top dress the 10 bales (fabulous stuff) and a little more for microgreens b/c I wanted something more sterile for those.I need to walk the garden with the rake and stir up some small grasses that are coming up IN the mulch I bought. I am so annoyed with this mulch, full of mold, full of seeds, and full of construction debris (foam) and LARGE branch pieces. Major bagged named brand, and STILL no reply from them.
@WthrLady, I know you operate on a much larger scale than I do though.
