Seasol Advanced Potting Mix is easy to use. Everything required for planting is contained in this bag. Depending upon plant variety, Seasol Advanced Potting Mix contains enough fertiliser for 6 months to help ensure plant establishment. To get the best results follow these simple steps:
1. Before planting, fill a bucket or container with water and Seasol and completely submerge the plant to be repotted (to soil level) until bubbles stop and let drain.
2. Partially fill pot with potting mix. Avoid blocking drainage holes with rocks as this will prevent correct drainage. Seasol Advanced Potting Mix drains freely.
3. Squeeze pot gently before removing the plant from the pot. Turn upside down and hold the soil in place with outstretched hands. Lightly tap the rim of the pot on a hard surface to loosen plant. Avoid loosening and breaking up root system, particularly in hot weather.
4. Place plant in pot and backfill potting mix so existing soil level of plant is approximately 25mm below rim of pot. Press potting mix gently around the plant.
5. Water in gently with Seasol and let drain. Place potted plant in final position.
Repotting:
Spring – Water in well at planting. Variable weather conditions and active spring growth on plants requires close monitoring. Water when potting mix feels dry.
Summer – Water every day or every second day depending on weather conditions and monitor soil moisture level.
Autumn – Water in well at planting and monitor soil moisture level. Reduce frequency as weather cools down.
Winter – Water in well at planting and monitor soil moisture. Water when potting mix feels dry. Waterwise plants, if exposed to the weather may not require additional watering until the weather warms up.
Ongoing Plant Care:
Seasol Advanced Potting Mix contains enough fertiliser for 6 months to help ensure plant establishment. Depending on plant variety, apply Seasol and PowerFeed every 2 to 4 weeks (check container for application rates) around the soil for continual healthy growth, increased pest and disease resistance and masses of flowers and tasty produce.
Lift pots up off the ground, with pot feet and avoid potted plants sitting in saucers filled with water for extended periods.
Repot when plants outgrow pots or every 1-2 years.
