How to use
- Use Premium Indoor straight from the bag – do not mix with other materials.
- Close the bag tightly after use.
- Choose a clean container with large drainage holes and partly fill it with fresh mix out of the bag.
- Carefully lift the plant to be potted up from its existing pot. Gently loosen the root ball without disturbing roots too much and remove any damaged, dried, or twisted roots.
- Place the plant in the centre of the pot (if potting up individually) or position if where you want it. Grow in a large container that will eventually hold several plants.
- Fill in with Premium Indoor to within 2-3 cm of the top rim of the pot and press lightly.
- Tap the new pot or container gently on the bench to help the new mix settle in and around the roots – do not pack it down.
- Water the pot thoroughly (until water runs from the drainage holes) then allow it to drain freely. If necessary, top the mix up again to the suggested level.
- Place the pot or container in the shade for a few days to allow the plant to settle and acclimatise before moving back to its permanent home.
When to use
Potting mixes can be used at any time of the year. Repotting established pot plants is the best done either in Spring or Autumn – avoid Winter or Summer as the extremes of temperature may stress plants. Flowering plants should be repotted after they have flowered – enjoy the bloom first!
