When you re-pot plants, what do you do with the old compost?

pop it onto the nearest flower bed

I stick it in a tub, them dig it into the garden whenever I clear a bed. Or use it to fill the bottom of tall planters.

I chuck it wherever there is bare earth, and fork it in.

I've been putting mine in my compost bin.

Another vote for chucking it in flower beds. We're on heavy clay so it could do with the help!

Yet another, chuck it on the flower beds. I also put it under bits of hedge that look dry and desperate!
The birds will soon pick out any grubs that are in it.
