Buying guide: Riddles & Sieves

Riddles and sieves separate fine soil and compost from stones, roots and lumps. The range includes round metal riddles in several mesh sizes, plastic garden sieves, fine mesh sieves and two-in-one sieves.

Mesh size

The mesh decides how fine the result is. Metal riddles commonly come with 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch and 1/2 inch mesh: the smaller the mesh, the finer the material that falls through. Use a fine mesh when preparing compost for sowing seed, and a coarser mesh for jobs such as clearing stones from soil or riddling a compost heap.

Using a riddle

  • Seed sowing: sieve multi-purpose compost to remove lumps before filling seed trays, and cover seeds with a light layer of sieved compost, usually no deeper than the seed itself. Check the seed packet for the depth.
  • Garden compost: use what passes through the riddle on the garden, and return any lumps to the top of the compost bin, where they help get newer material breaking down.
  • Soil: riddle soil to take out stones and roots before making a seed bed or filling pots.
