Newbie poster here, please excuse if this isn’t quite the correct thread. I did do a quick search but was told that the words I used were too common :lol:

I have some small/young herb plants that are now becoming desperate to be planted out, I’m planting into pots. The only compost that I have available just now is two bags that have been here about 18 months, I’m not even sure anymore exactly what they are, but I’ll go check if it makes a difference. I have compost ordered which was supposed to arrive before the plants but things as they are right now, that hasn’t happened and I’ve now received an update that the compost may not be here until the 28th :(

Could I use this old compost or should I just wait and hope for the best with the herbs?
