Anna this is a very timely post! Having just lost 50 Dahlia cuttings to some dodgy compost, I have decided I need to investigate and use green manures going forward. Thank you for the invaluable info.
I'm sorry to hear that Sonja - so upsetting! If possible, I think growing your own compost material is really useful, in fact essential - part of the balance of our growing plans. You know, something like the old money mantra 'spend some, save some, give some away'! I'd love to know how you get on.
