HOW TO USE
• Use Premium Mix straight from the bag - don't mix it with other materials.
Close the bag tightly after use.
• Water each plant well an hour or so before repotting, and leave to drain.
• Choose a clean container with large drainage holes and partly fill it the fresh mix out of the bag.
• Carefully lift the plant to be potted up from its existing pot. Gently loosen the old mix around the root ball without disturbing roots too much and remove any damaged, twisted or dead roots.
• Place the plant in the centre of the pot (if potting up individually) or position it where you want it grow in a larger container that will eventually hold several plants.
• Fill in with Premium Mix to within 2-3cm 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
