What can Natural Grower Compost be used for?

Our peat-free multi-purpose compost is suitable for a wide range of gardening uses, including:

  • Growing vegetables and flowers

  • Pots and containers

  • Indoor and outdoor plants

  • Established seedlings and young plants

  • Trees and larger plants

  • Improving garden soil

  • Mulching vegetable beds, flower beds and borders

Using Natural Grower Compost as a mulch

Natural Grower Compost can be spread over vegetable beds, flower beds and borders as a mulch.

As the compost becomes incorporated into the soil, it adds valuable organic matter and helps improve the long-term structure of your soil.

Read our guide to 8 Reasons to Mulch.

Can I use Natural Grower Compost for seeds and young seedlings?

Yes. If you are using the compost for sowing seeds or planting very young seedlings, we recommend mixing it approximately 50:50 with soil, sand or coir.

This helps retain moisture in shallow seed trays while creating a more aerated growing medium for germination and delicate developing roots.

When your seedlings are ready to pot on, mix some of our Plant Feed & Soil Improver into the compost to provide slow-release nutrients as the plants establish.

Do plants growing in compost need feeding?

Plants growing in containers will gradually use the nutrients available in their compost.

During the growing season, you can supplement them with our Natural Liquid Fertiliser to provide additional nutrients as plants grow, flower and crop.

Is Natural Grower Compost peat-free?

Yes. Natural Grower Compost is 100% peat-free.

It provides a natural alternative to peat-based growing media and is suitable for a wide variety of vegetables, flowers and other garden plants.

Is Natural Grower Compost suitable for organic gardening?

Yes. Natural Grower Compost is Approved Organic by the Soil Association.

It is also certified Biodynamic by the Biodynamic Association and certified Vegan by The Vegan Society, making it suitable for gardeners following organic, biodynamic or veganic growing principles.

Customer photo review of Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

I bought 2 bags of your organic compost to sow my spring seeds and nothing grew - not one seedling - after 2 months in a greenhouse - it was as though the compost was sterile - I wondered if there was something wrong with the batch? My neighbour also bought the same compost and she had a similar experience.

Customer photo review of Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

I’m a first time grower and did lots of research before investing in the right growing medium. I used this in my vegepod and after 2 weeks the pictures taken in April show they look. Highly recommend for the organic gardener.

Very happy my organic pea shoots have been a success with this soil . Delivery was quick through DPD .. very happy

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

Store owner replied: Your pea shoots look fabulous! Enjoy and thank you for the review.

My first year of using the Organic Natural Compost and my new ‘go to’ for when I don’t have enough compost of my own, from the garden, I mix the two together to make it go further. Great texture and both the greenhouse plants and outdoor veggies are seeming to thrive on it. Highly recommend.

My plants are so much happier after getting this compost, the veggies that were wilting are now absolutely flourishing. Should see how much the calabrese broccoli has grown in just a few days! :')

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

I got my orders very quickly and in good condition. I am really happy with the compost and the liquid fertiliser that I have used so far. I think all of your products are of excellent quality and am recommending to others.

Excellent customer service. Quick response and delivery to Northern Ireland which most companies dont deliver to anymore. Compost is a really good quality and a free bag of plant/veg food with order. I will definitely order from this company again.

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

Beautiful black crumbly rich looking compost. Looks like what compost used to be like. It does appear to me to be of superior quality to many I’ve used recently. I’ll review again when I see how well my vegetables task and appear at harvesting time this year. Thank you for selling exactly what I’ve been looking for.

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

Great quality compost, good fine texture with no large woody bits as common in some sustainable composts. Has made a very good indoor compost plants seem very happy in.

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

I've used this compost for the first time this year and really liked it. Lovely crumbly texture without the big lumps, sticks and stones you get in some compost. Things seemed to grow quite while, but I hope I'll get a better idea this year.

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

I'm no expert, but it seems like dark, nutrient-rich soil. I mostly use this brand because it's vegan, but I also like how smooth and even it is. I like that it's produced in the UK by a UK business, and it seems like a really good price for the quality.

While I have experience in gardening, I am new to "gardening in pots". I have been professionally advised on Natural Grower products during a telephone conversation. I am satisfied with my plantations . Also, my order was delivered as promised the following day.

Natural Compost - Organic and Peat Free - 50L Bag

Best compost I’ve ever used. Very fine and no rubbish or bits of wood. I’m most impressed and will buy again. It is expensive but I think it’s worth the cost.

Be a smarter gardener

Gardening organically is a more affordable and long term alternative to using chemical fertilisers. Natural Grower products eliminate waste because the nutrients are slowly released to the plants as they need them. Over the long-term you save money because your soil health naturally improves, which in turn produces healthier, stronger, disease resistant plants. Chemical products may cost less financially in the short term, but they don’t provide any long-term benefits and the damage they do to the natural eco-system in the soil is costly.

Slow release for sustained growth

Organic fertilisers are broken down slowly by organisms in the soil to produce a more measured, consistent, natural release of nutrients. This results in uniform growth with strong stems and leaves, unlike chemical fertilisers which provide a sudden boost resulting in tall lanky plants. Stronger plants are more resistant to disease, and with the presence of mycorrizhal fungi to strengthen the roots, the plants, soil and fungi all work together long-term to create the perfect natural eco-system.

Love your land

The organic matter in Natural Grower will help keep your soil or compost in optimum condition, retain moisture over the dry summer months and improve the health and structure of your soil. The presence of natural Mycorrhizal fungi in our products enhances root growth, enabling plants to extract nutrients and absorb water more efficiently from the soil or compost. By using our products you will be supporting and enhancing the natural eco-system in the soil.

Embrace sustainability

Natural Grower’s chemical free fertiliser products are approved organic, biodynamic and vegan. Plant-based and free from chemicals they are safe to use around wildlife, pets and children. Eco-friendly and sustainably produced in the UK. Our packaging is made from recycled plastic where possible and is all 100% recyclable. We are always happy to refill used containers, and often sell our products in reused containers or slightly damaged packaging at a reduced price. Reduce, reuse, recycle.
