Can I use the compost from my potato growing bags in the garden?

Our Advice:

Yes, this spent compost can be spread over your borders to help improve soil fertility. Apply it as a mulch and let the worms work it into the soil for you. If you keep doing this over a number of years, your garden soil should be much easier to cultivate.
