How to Use

First put on a pair of gloves and rework compost between your hands, so it retains its intended texture

Seedlings/Pricking out

• Pick out seedlings once they are large enough to handle. Hold seedlings by the leaves to avoid damage and tease out root using a dibber or pencil

• Plant seedlings apart to allow for growth. Water regularly until the seeds are ready to be potted on

Potting

• Water plant well and allow to drain before potting. Allow enough space to accommodate the roots

• Remove from pot and plant in container, firming the compost gently around the roots

• Once fully planted, water well

Taking cuttings

• Fill seed tray evenly with compost, firm gently and water

• Make a sloping cut in the stem of the cutting and remove all bottom leaves

• Dip the end of the cutting in a hormone rooting powder to encourage rooting

• Make a hole in the compost with a pencil/dibber

• Place cutting in the hole and firm compost gently around it

• Cover the tray with polythene or glass to prevent drying out and place in a warm spot, away from direct sunlight until the cuttings have taken

Hanging Baskets

• Line the basket and fill with compost. Plant with trailing plants around the outside and upright plants in the middle

• Water well

  • More flowers, more vibrancy, longer plant life
  • Ideal for containers and hanging baskets
