Where to use
Use for all types of re-potting

Potting-on plants
Re-potting is best done in the spring, when plants are actively growing. Before re-potting, water plants well and allow to drain. Put fresh compost in the bottom of a new pot. Turn the old plant upside down and tap the pot sharply to release. Place the plant in the middle of the new port and add more compost, firming lightly around the root-ball.


Leave a space of at least 1cm below the pot rim to allow adequate space for watering. Water the plant well.


Instructions for use
Use straight from the bag. When filling or potting, firm lightly. Keep the compost moist and do not let it dry out. Do not leave plants standing in water. Storing from one year to another may result in the fertiliser ratios becoming unbalanced.
