I have found at the back of the garage and can of Growmore that has
almost certainly been there for 5+ years! Is it still useable or should
I just stick it in the copmost heap?

Thanks

What do you mean by "can" of Growmore? When I've bought it, although not
recently, it came in tubs or bags.

Anyway, providing it's still reasonably granular (and you break up any
clumps), it should still be usable. If it has completely disintegrated
into a powder, I'd use somewhat less of it when you spread it.

I've been using a bag of Growmore which I bought at least ten, if not
twenty, years ago. It still works!
