Very strange.I think the wood fibre and bark dries out quite quickly. The peat-free stuff Levington make for professionals (https://icl-sf.com/uk-en/explore/nursery...e-sustain/) has a wetting agent added to hold on to water better.
Aldi last year would've been fine if it didn't contain so much plastic. My peppers absolutely loved growing in it. I am happy to use green waste compost as long as it’s properly made and properly screened, but I absolutely do not want bits of plastic added to my garden.
