Potting Mix - Earl May Premium 10Qt.
Details
Earl May Premium Potting Mix is made for houseplants and container gardens. This pre-moistened, dark potting soil mix contains a blend of rich organic humus, peat, compost, and horticultural perlite. It holds moisture better than 100% all peat moss soils that dry out quickly in hot weather. Our potting mix is fortified with plant food to encourage root growth as an added benefit to your plants.
Size: 10 Quart Dry Mix
Directions for Use
- Select a pot or container with drain holes. If repotting, choose a container one size larger than the old one.
- Tap pot lightly in a few places and gently remove the plant.
- Fill pot ⅓ full with Earl May Premium Potting Mix and insert plant. Fill in with more potting mix. Leave up to one inch of space between the top of the potting mix and the lip of the pot.
- Water thoroughly and allow to drain.
Other Growing Tips
Watering: Let soil dry to touch before watering again. When watering, allow pot to drain. Do not let plants sit in drainage water to avoid root rot. Check outdoor containers often, as they can dry out quickly.
Lighting: Plants differ in their lighting requirements. Check plant tags for specific lighting needs.
Houseplants: Most prefer a humid environment. Do not place plants by heat registers or radiators.
Container Gardening: Some plants, especially vegetables, are better suited than others for container gardens. Check plant tags or consult your nursery professional.
