Sorry I just reread you reply, you only use unicorn for 2kh bags? what sort of bag do you use for the 6 and 12kg?

These are the sort I have been currently using but only hold about 4kg without overfilling and compromising on amount of air in bag.

They do have larger bags but they then become quite wide and am concerned it may be a problem.

What weight/size do you normally place in each bag? I know that each bag should be about 50/60% full. I was just wondering if you regularly grow bags at 5kg, 10kg etc and what the maximum weight you have regular success is? Or perhaps aa maximum bag width, 20cm etc. Also, does it have an affect on the time it takes to colonise.

Lastly with the unicorn bags, it appears the holes in this type of bag aren’t filtered? Is that correct and does it have an impact on contamination

Thanks

Hi Jennifer, in Australia I think this is what you would use – can anyone confirm? If it is you can pick it up at Bunnings.

I was also wondering about this one though http://ecoorganicgarden.com.au/products/soil-improvers/eco-flo-lime/

Hi, I’ve heard that you could use it as feed/feed supplement for chickens and other livestock. I’m trying to research this for more detail at the moment so if anyone else has any info on this please let me know.
