I use just topsoil alone.
don't get stuff with added nutrients as it will have fertiliser in it, plain sterilised topsoil is what you want |

I have redi-grass in with kreacher but she still digs in the soil and sleeps there so a bit of a waste of money really lol

I too use the B&Q topsoil. Its good stuff.
I keep mine in the shed so usually pop some in a bucket and put the bucket next to the radiator for a hour or so. Just to take the chill off. |

Yup, I use topsoil with a bit of readi-grass in the sleeping area. I bought a huge bag of this last year and I'm using it just to get rid. I wouldn't bother with readi-grass again particularly, although the torts haven't complained
